We are attempting to accumulate our experience with multiples over the past 10-15 years. Retrieving this information is somewhat dependent on the cooperation of our patients. We feel sure the following is incomplete in describing our total experience. If you are a previous patient with multiples, please call us.

This practice accepts referrals from physicians only, making it quite possible that our outcomes are biased by referral of patients more likely to deliver earlier in gestation (for example tall multiparous patients are more likely to carry to later gestation than short primigravidas).

So far, we have information on 140 sets of triplets we have seen. Nineteen were seen for consultation only. Fifteen reduced to twins or less, spontaneously or planned, at less than 20 weeks. Five are currently still pregnant. Of the 101 who have delivered under our care, gestation at delivery is tabulated as follows:

Gestational Age at delivery (wks)	Number of patients
14-24	4
25-28	8
29-30	14
31-32	19
33-34	36
35-36	17
37-40	3
