Carrying twins places additional demands on the mother's body and requires more frequent medical assessments than a singleton pregnancy. At Sattva The Fetal Medicine Centre, we provide comprehensive maternal and fetal monitoring to support a healthy pregnancy for both mother and babies.
Although many women deliver healthy twins, twin pregnancies require closer monitoring because they carry a higher risk of maternal and fetal complications. Early diagnosis and expert fetal medicine care help ensure the best possible outcomes.
Twin pregnancies have a higher likelihood of delivering before 37 weeks, making regular monitoring essential to reduce the risk of premature birth.
Carrying twins increases the body's metabolic demands and may increase the risk of developing gestational diabetes during pregnancy.
Regular blood pressure monitoring helps detect pregnancy-induced hypertension and complications such as preeclampsia at an early stage.
Both babies are closely monitored to ensure healthy growth and identify any differences in development that may require medical attention.
Twin pregnancies may develop placental conditions affecting blood flow, requiring specialized fetal assessment and ongoing surveillance.
In monochorionic twin pregnancies, abnormal blood flow between the babies may occur and requires specialized fetal medicine monitoring and timely intervention.
