First will most likely develop normally. Need to check literature on outcomes (ie increased risk PTL, stillbirth?) etc for loss of twin in first trimester. ________________________________ Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2007 01:07:44 -0600 ________________________________ From: henrygregor@yahoo.com To: ob-gyn-l@dns.obgyn.net Subject: Twin gestation Healthy 21 yo, first pregancy, with twins at nine plus weeks has one viable fetus w/ twin A age approprate CRL with fetal movement and heart rate.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
