About this trial

This study aims to compare how well two different types of fetal growth charts work in tracking the growth of twins during pregnancy. These charts help doctors decide if a fetus is growing normally. One type is commonly used for all pregnancies, while the other is specially designed for twin pregnancies. The study will enroll pregnant individuals carrying twins. Participants will be randomly assigned to have their care guided by either the traditional chart or the twin-specific chart. Researchers will compare outcomes such as birth weight, timing of delivery, and newborn health. The goal is to find out if using twin-specific charts can improve care and reduce unnecessary interventions.
