S10 Ep 1 - Monochorionic twins & complications with Stephanie Ernst

  • Summary

  • In this episode I chat to Stephanie Ernst, founder of the TAPS Support Foundation, about monochorionic twins and the complications they may experience. Monochorionic twins, often referred to as identical twins, can experience more complications compared to dichorionic twins (fraternal), and Stephanie talks us through the chances of these twins experiencing conditions such as TTTS, TAPS and fetal growth restriction. We discuss the ways these babies may be monitored for these conditions, the pathways of care if they're diagnosed, and the potential outcomes.

    Stephanie Ernst facilitates conversations between parents and professionals about the unique needs of complicated twins and multiple birth families and their challenges. Founder of TAPS Support, and experienced twin parent, her passion is breaking down medical jargon and ensuring that people have quality information about multiple births from before birth, to beyond the NICU.
