ABSTRACT

Dichorionic Diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies are the most common type of twin gestation, characterized by two separate placentas and amniotic sacs, and generally present with fewer complications than monochorionic twins. A case of a 26-year-old G2P1D1 woman with a spontaneous conception and no family history of twins, who presented with history of 9 months of amenorrhoea came for safe confinement. Her antenatal course was uneventful, and DCDA twin gestation was diagnosed during a dating scan. Vitals, general physical examination was uneventful. Per Abdomen corresponds to 37 weeks of gestation. This case highlights the importance of High-Risk Pregnancy, regular monitoring, and multidisciplinary care in managing twin pregnancies to ensure optimal maternal and fetal outcomes.

Key words: Multiple pregnancy, Dichorionic Diamniotic twin gestation.
