Note that by âlong distance relationships,â I refer to the ones where there is no current possibility or any possibility in the near future that the two people involved will be living in the same area. So, based on my own experience, these are 7 reasons why long distance relationships donât work out:
As mentioned above, there's no guarantee that your twins will arrive early. However, the possibility is higher than with a singleton birth. Some hospitals allow expectant parents to take a tour of the NICU, to get some idea of what may be waiting for them; ask if that's an option.
The reasons vary (twin pregnancies are high risk pregnancies and are susceptible to more complications than singletons, often leading to early or premature births). The average gestation period for twins is 36 weeks, but it is not uncommon for twins to be born as early as 28 weeks, or as late as 40 weeks.
