What is a monochorionic twin1

  Single chorionic twin refers to twins, and they are identical twins, so the baby's gender is completely the same. Twin pregnant women are actually more likely to have some problems, and the baby also needs more nutrition. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to nutritional supplementation during pregnancy, and regularly go to the hospital for examination. If any problems are found, they must be dealt with in a timely manner.

  Pregnant twins require more nutrients such as calories, protein, minerals, vitamins, etc. to ensure the growth and development of both fetuses. The blood volume of pregnant women with twin pregnancies is significantly larger than that of single pregnancies, and the demand for iron also increases, often leading to anemia in the early stages. To prevent anemia, in addition to strengthening nutrition, consuming fresh lean meat, eggs, milk, fish, animal liver, and vegetables and fruits, it is also necessary to supplement iron supplements, folic acid, etc. daily.

  Pregnant women should undergo regular check ups, and doctors will increase the frequency of prenatal and ultrasound examinations based on the pregnancy status of twin pregnant women. This is beneficial for assessing the risk of miscarriage and the type of twins, mastering the fetal development process, early detection of problems, and making the most appropriate medical treatment.
