Twin examination
• Fundal height more D/d of bleeding in 3rd trimester
• Symphysiofundal heart more Placenta previa Vasa previa
• Multiple fetal parts: search for head • Fetal distress
• Multiple heart sounds: mark distance between 2 location, at least 10 cm and 10 beat diff
• Lie of 1st fetus is most important because it decides course Contraction not started Contraction started
• Abruptio
C Section of twins • Show: mucous plug + blood
• Placentomagally: give incision in lower shment of uterus but above boginess which is placenta • Uterine rupture
• Find margin of placenta and then touch fetal part • Preterm labour
• If placenta is ant and cannot feel margin then cut placenta and deliver fetus quickly • Vaginal tear
• Need to deliver 2nd fetus quickly because uterus starts gripping if both are CS • Cervical polyp
Causes of abortion
• Chromosomal anomalies(Aneuploidy — trisomy 21)
• Uterine malformations
• Trauma
• Previous h/o abortion
• Infection: ToRCHeS ext toxoplasma
• Uncontrolled Diabetes, HTN, thyroid
