Default principal diagnosis: inpatient Yes · outpatient Yes

Clinical InformationClinical

  • Multiple Gestation

    a pregnancy involving twins or higher-order multiple fetuses (e.g., triplets, quadruplets).

Patient EducationClinical

Twins, Triplets, Multiple Births

If you are pregnant with more than one baby, you are far from alone. Multiple births are up in the United States. More women are having babies after age 30 and more are taking fertility drugs. Both boost the chance of carrying more than one baby. A family history of twins also makes multiples more likely.
