Having Twins and More: A Parent's Guide to Multiple Pregnancy, Birth, and Early Childhood, third edition, by Elizabeth Noble with Leo Sorger, MD, is the definitive, comprehensive, attachment parenting-friendly resource on multiples. Experts said the abortion would be the first known case in Britain in which a healthy fetus in a naturally conceived multiple pregnancy was aborted. Indeed, Callahan's team estimates that if each multiple pregnancy had involved a single baby, "the [annual health care) savings would have been more than $3 million in this one hospital" And as they did not factor in the additional postdischarge costs typically associated with twins and triplets, these figures probably understate the total costs of multiple births. |
