What are the symptoms of monozygotic twins?

In twin pregnancy, the reaction of early pregnancy is more serious. From the 10th week of pregnancy, the uterine enlargement speed is faster than that of singleton, especially after the 24th week of pregnancy. In the third trimester of pregnancy, due to too large uterus, it can cause back pain, dyspnea, full stomach, less appetite, walking inconvenience, varicose veins, edema, hemorrhoids attack and other compression symptoms. Twin pregnant women need more protein, iron and folic acid than singleton pregnant women. In addition, the absorption and utilization of folic acid is decreased, which often leads to iron deficiency anemia and megaloblastic anemia.

Twin pregnancy is also prone to complicate pregnancy induced hypertension, polyhydramnios, fetal malformation, placenta previa, placental abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, premature birth, dystocia, intrauterine growth retardation, intrauterine stillbirth, abnormal fetal position and so on. The most common fetal position of twin pregnancy is vertical delivery, with head or head buttocks, and other fetal positions are rare. Twin pregnancy, due to uterine enlargement, high pressure, prone to premature rupture of membranes and premature delivery. The average weight of monozygotic twins is light. In twin pregnancy, the placental area is large, sometimes extends to the lower uterine segment and cervical orifice, forming placenta previa, leading to prenatal bleeding.

The uterus of twin pregnancy is significantly larger than that of single pregnancy, and the growth rate is faster, especially after 24 weeks. This not only increases the physical burden of pregnant women, but also causes palpitation, dyspnea, edema of lower limbs and varicose veins due to the compression of heart, lung and inferior vena cava, which is more obvious in the late pregnancy. Therefore, in the third trimester of pregnancy, we should pay special attention to avoid fatigue, more bed rest, which can reduce the symptoms of oppression, increase the blood flow of the uterus, and prevent premature delivery. In addition, due to the excessive enlargement of the uterus caused by twins, it is often difficult to maintain to full-term and early delivery. Therefore, twin pregnant women need to be hospitalized in advance to ensure the smooth delivery of maternal.
