"So triplets is a type of multiple pregnancy where there are three babies going inside the mother's tummy. Now how are triplets formed now one a fertilized egg if it is divided into three separate embryos that can cause three babies growing and they're of same sex and they shaded the new sequin they are identical tripets. The other type of triplets where three eggs are separately fertilized by the sperm. So there are three different sacs growing they are fraternal or nonidentical. Now based on the sharing of placenta there are again three types of triplets, one is monochorionic where all the three babies share the placenta dichorionic where two babies share the placenta the other baby has its own placenta and trichorionic where all the three babies have their separate placenta. The complications at triplets are more when compared to twins and singleton. There is increase instance of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy increase your scope spotting and miscarriage in the first trimester more risk of having anemia, preeclampsia, that is hypertension in pregnancy and gestational diabetes and yes the risk of pre-term birth is more when compared to Twin pregnancies. Usually we wait till 34 to 35 minutes to plan delivery for triplet pregnancy and the mode of delivery is mostly C-section"

"Multiple pregnancies twins and triplets the antenatal care is more frequent antenatal visits with the doctor more frequent ultrasound to monitor the growth of the baby. So in the first trimester we usually ask for a scan to confirm pregnancy between 7 to 8 weeks of pregnancy. Then a scan between 11 to 14 weeks is the month which will diagnose whether it is a monochorionic twins or a dichorionic twins. If it's a dichorionic twins after the first trimester screening is done we usually call them at around 16 weeks to get an cervical length scan which will pick up if there is any shortening of the cervix and if required we might put the cerclage stitch for her. In monochorionic twins along with the cervical scan 16 week scan we can pick up Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome also then we do a TIFFA scan in 20 weeks and then every 4 weeks we do scans pick up how the babies are growing. Along with this we ask the mother to take iron and calcium supplements regularly. We advise the mother to monitor the blood pressure regularly at home so that we can pick up eclampsia at a early stage. We screen the mothers for gestational diabetes by doing an OGTT between 24 to 28 weeks and yes in Twin pregnancies from 28 weeks we would call them every 2 weeks for regular antenatal checkups. In dichorionic twin pregnancy we can wait up to 37 to 38 weeks for delivery and then monochorionic twins from 36 to 37 weeks we can plan delivery"

"So twins are formed by either the fertilized egg dividing into two babies or two eggs fertilized separately by the sperms. So where the fertilized egg is divided, they're going separated in that two identical twins formed. In conjoined twins they don't separate completely. There is a union between the twins partially. The union can be at the chest, can be at the abdomen, or it can be at the pelvis. Depending on the type of union we give different names for this conjoined twins. Many of conjoin twins do not actually survive till delivery. But few are born but they are conjoined they have complications sometimes they can even share their internal or. So based on how much of internal organs are shared. They can undergo surgery, get them separated and there are few successful surgeries perform on conjoined twins"
