A member asked:

What kind of prenatal care is required for twins? if i'm carrying twins, what type of extra prenatal care will i need, if any?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

High Risk care: You will need your obstetrician to review your pregnancy and medical conditions. You should take 2 mg of folate (folic acid) daily and will likely need additional ultrasounds, at least every month after 20 weeks.
