Why are women with multiples more likely to need a cesarean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Babies...: Multiple birth pregancies tend toward greater complications. Despite total fetal weight, the babies at parturition have lower birth weights, and finally, cords from one child can be wrapped around the fetal sibling!
