Question
At 32 weeks pregnant, during the twin ultrasound examination, how much should the weight of the two children be, and is this normal? If the plan is to have a cesarean section at 37 weeks, are the children’s development enough to be mature? What will be the approximate weight of the children at the time of a 37-week cesarean section?
Answer
Based on the provided ultrasound results, both fetuses are within the normal weight range. If there are no abdominal pain or labor signs at present, it is recommended to try to shorten the time of preterm labor. Although 37 weeks is full term, compared to children at 39 weeks, their constitution and disease rate may differ. Therefore, it may be more beneficial for the children’s development and health to aim for delivery at 39 weeks rather than earlier.
