Twins; Identical and Ferternal

Kevin Le Mr. Smith Health Period 5 11 January 2013 Twins Identical and Fraternal When it comes to people in the Earth duplicate are elicit tosee. It useto bea mystery of how a develop can give abide to more than one thwart. In the ago year at that place are more birth of twins, and more type of multiple births. There are some reasons for a mother to give birth to twins the first reason is multiple eggsare released. Another reason is one of the eggis world releasedand wherefore splits into two. When a person thinks just about a twin they think of identical twin, besides thithers more there are fraternal twin (twins born(p)the same day, entirely codt look alike. andthere is conjointwin (twinsbornout conjoin. ) What is the difference between these three, there is no difference they were all born on the same day, yet they put one across different physical appearance. Fraternal twins are still twins, but different gender one go out be a boy and the other will be girl. las tly the other difference between them and identical twins is that fraternal twins dont share the same DNA as identical twins. To find out if a mother has a twin a motheris recommendedto sustain an ultrasound.In some research itis saidthat during the beginning to the twelfth week of pregnancy there is a risk of having Vanishing Twin Syndrome. This happen when one of baby began to occluded front growing or neither of the baby is gettingthe nutrition fromthe mother, and when one of the baby born and the other isstill-born. There are some factors that increase the erratic of a mother having twins. The firstreasonis advance age mother from the 30s and 40s accept a high chance of having twin because their ovaries are more potential to produce more than one egg at a clip.Second reason is mother who turn out gave birth to a child already each time she is meaning(a) she has a higher chance each time to have twin. Thirdreasonis if she is a twin she has a honorable chance to have twins , or if one of her sibling gave birth to twin then she will have a good chance to have twin. The lastreasonis African women has the highest chance of having twin time Asian women have a low chance. When having a single baby one of the female ovaries release one egg, and then the egg joins with sperm of the male partner. therefore the fertilized egg began to develop a baby.Then when having multiple babies the female ovaries release two eggs at the same time. Then a separate sperm from the male partner began to fertilize with the egg, which will produce twins. When a female is about to give birth to three or more baby the process of it is aboutlikewhen a female giving birth to twins. When about to give birth to twins or being fraught(p) with one can cause risk and dangers to twins. The major risk of having one waspretermlabor. Pretermlabor is when the baby is born three to four weeks before the babywas assigned tobe born.If a mother is concern that she is havingpreterm laborthere i s sign. The signs are a mother is beginning to have more than five densification hour. Also the mother began to have contractionoften, and then she is starting having cramp. Another sign is she is having an upset stomach. Lastly her vagina begins to have changes, but also she could begin to vaginal bleeding. Itis toldby doctor that the mother having multiple births that she is aware of the risk orpretermlabor,andthe sign of it. Another risk of having a twin is they could have twin-to-twin transfusion Syndrome.Twin-to-twin Transfusion Syndrome is a disease of the placenta. When in pregnancy the single placentais shared between the two twins, during that process abnormal vessel canhave a chanceto develop, thenthe connection ofthe circulatory system of the twin. After, that it can develop of uneven exchange of decline flow. When that happens between the two babies one of them will give caudex to the other one which can risk of or both of the babies health. Lastly another risk is th e twins can haveMonoamnionic MonochorionicTwins. This disease occurs when twinsare enclosedwithin a single amniotic sac.During the mother pregnancy the twins umbilical cords begins to me tangled, which result in lost of nutrients and oxygen to their body. When that happens there will be no cure, but to give birth to them. When a mother ofMonoamnionicMonochorionictwins she is being taking special care, and been watch for possible hospitalization. The good thing is only 1% percent of twin birth will be monoamniotic. The current survival rate for this disease is 60%. While there are risks when having multiple births for the babies, there are some that can endanger the mothers health.Mothers that gave birth to multiple babieshave a chanceof experiencing gestational diabetes, during the stage of pregnancy. This happen, because when carrying anextrababy itcan interfereswith the mothers body ability to process insulin. The good thing is, itcan becontrolled with a diet, but sometimes the in sulinmust bemanaged. This will not have an affect to the babies. Another risk is the risk for the mother to have heart problem. Recent count in Canada got sad result for mothers of multiple babies. They found out that mothers that carry two or more babies are thirteen times more plausibly tohave the experienceof heart failure.Not only that the risk of having a heart attack during their pregnancy stage is n earlyish quadruple. More research tells that the mothers can have an increase to physiological stress, explaining that eachmorebaby raises the level of cardiac output. Lastly the other risk for a mother is they could havePreeclampsiaandPIH. When pregnant mother of multiples they could have blood pressure problem. PIH, or Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension,is diagnosedwhen the mothers blood pressure is measures higher than 140 over 90. Itis recommended that a mother that is pregnant with multiple that theyshould checktheir blood pressure regularly.There also treatments for this some are, restricted activity, seat rest, and rarely use of medications. Severe cases can result in early delivery. While there isPIH,Preeclampsiait is different. Preeclampsiaeffectsin one in three moms giving birth to multiple babies. It could be treated with bed rest or medications, but the mother should closely watch because there potential risk that the mother can have kidney failure, seizures or stroke. The symptoms can unremarkably occur after twentieth week of pregnancy, whichcan beusually found in routine check up.The symptoms are water retention, high blood pressure, proteins in the urine or the mother can began to gain more than two pounds in a week. More severe symptomscan be tumult or confusion, the mother begins to have mental change, nausea or vomiting, headaches, fatigue, stomach pain, or breath shortness. It is best is that the mother should contact with a doctor or caretaker if she is experiencing theses symptoms so, she could find a treatments. In the past year there have been interesting things about twins like in 1980, one in each 53 babiesbornare twins. By 2009 the number has increase to one in thirty.Another interesting thing is male twins will neverhave a chanceto have twins un slight their wives can the ability to produce two eggs. Also identical twins share the same DNA, but what is interesting is that they dont share the same fingerprints. It is found that 22% of twins are bornleft-handed, while it is 10% for a single baby. A mother thatbefore gave birth to fraternal twins has a three to four times to give birth to another set of twins. Nigeria has the highest rate of multiple births, while in China they have the lowest rate the average in one in three hundreds babies.Study has shown that awoman whois vegan has five times less likely to have twins than to a woman who eats meat. A study in Padova, Italy found out that the babies began to interact at fourteen weeks. Lastly 40% of twins invent their own language. In the past years twins we re fascinated, but now they are not as much fascinated since the birth of twins has increase. Not only the birth has increase, but also there has been diseases found in twins. Identical, fraternal, and conjoin yes they are all different twin, but all three has something common.
