Pregnancy with multiple babies means that a woman is pregnant with more than one baby at a time. This can happen in a few ways: twins, triplets, quadruplets or more. Twins are most common.
The pregnancy and birth process with multiple babies is different than what it is with one baby.
Fraternal twins happen when more than one egg releases and sperm fertilizes each egg. When this happens, it causes more than one embryo to implant and grow in the uterus (womb).
Identical twins happen when the sperm fertilizes a single egg and it splits. This results in identical embryos that implant and grow in the uterus.
