Abstract
African-born women have a lower risk of preterm birth and small for gestational age (SGA) birth compared to United States (US)-born Black women, however variation by country of origin is overlooked. Additionally, the extent that nativity disparities in adverse perinatal outcomes to Black women are explained by individual-level factors remains unclear.
