Week 9
Many pregnant mothers wonder how their 9-week-old fetus has developed. So let's explore with aFamilyToday Health now!
The fun will probably double when your doctor says you're pregnant with multiple pregnancies. So why pregnant multiple? Let's find out with aFamilyToday Health.
Two or more babies who grow up together in the mother's womb are called multiple pregnancies. Sometimes babies look very similar, making parents easy to confuse, but there are also cases where the babies just resemble some characteristics so it is easier to recognize.
The fetus is formed from the successful fertilization of 1 egg and 1 sperm. If the embryo splits into 2, you will have identical twins. If one of the two embryos divides again, you will have 3 and so on. Babies all start with the same genome and the same sex (boys and girls), most of which have the same appearance after birth. For every 1,000 births, 1 will be triplets, giving birth.
Sometimes, more than one egg is released in a month. If each egg fertilizes with different sperm, different twins occur. Genes of identical twins are not identical (similar to siblings of the same parent). Non-egg twins occur more often.
A woman has two or more ovulation eggs, each of which can be fertilized at different times, even by different men. This leads to twins with different eggs from the same mother.
Parents of twins often indicate that their child has a special language and only uses this language together. Apparently, the communication of the fetus begins early. One study found that by the 14th week of pregnancy, twins made movements towards each other.
When pregnant with multiple pregnancies, the best option is a caesarean section to protect the health of mother and baby. If you choose to give birth normally, the pregnant mother may not be able to force her to deliver.
Several things can affect rates of multiple pregnancies. For example, if a woman is incapable of becoming pregnant, her doctor may recommend medication to stimulate the ovaries to release more eggs. This can increase your chances of having a baby but increase your chances of having multiple pregnancies.
Using in vitro fertilization , the egg is fertilized with sperm in a laboratory and then returned to the woman's uterus. This can be complicated and difficult to predict if an embryo will develop in the uterus. As a result, the doctor will usually implant some healthy embryos. With luck, all embryos will grow and form multiple pregnancies.
More than 35% of American women with twins are over 30 years old. Even without fertility treatments, women over 30 can release 2 or more eggs in a month. This may be because their bodies make many of the hormones that stimulate the ovaries.
Mothers more likely to have multiple pregnancies are usually about 3 cm taller than other women. In these individuals there is growth hormone IGF (insulin-like growth factor), which causes a woman's ovaries to release more eggs. However, this still needs more research to come to exact conclusions.
One study found that women who drink a lot of milk or dairy products are more likely to have twins. Scientists believe that milk causes the body to produce more of the IGF hormone, leading to more ovulation every month.
Women whose mothers or twin sisters are also likely to have twins.
Women with a higher body mass index (BMI) also have a higher rate of multiple pregnancies.
This is the most common complication of multiple pregnancies. A full term baby is born between 39 and 40 weeks of pregnancy. Most twins are born earlier, under 37 weeks. Babies are 6 times more likely to be born prematurely than single babies. Infants before 32 weeks often have long-term health problems such as hearing loss, poor vision, brain damage ...
Multiple pregnancies cause high blood pressure and other health problems. Although these conditions can occur during any pregnancy, they are more serious if a pregnancy is multiple. Hypertension is often the first sign accompanied by headaches, vision problems, nausea and danger to pregnant women and fetuses if not supervised and promptly intervened by the doctor.
Due to the above complicated complications, pregnant mothers need to periodically go to prenatal check-ups so that the doctor can monitor the baby's growth and development and the mother's health, and monitor signs of early birth. In addition to an ultrasound, pregnant mothers also have other tests to make sure everything is okay.
