AIMS Guide to Twin Pregnancy & Birth

2021

The AIMS Guide to Twin Pregnancy and Birth provides detailed information about what twin pregnancy, birth and the early days after birth might be like, the factors to consider when making decisions and the care that is (or should be) offered. It also provides links to specialist resources and sources of support. It provides a comprehensive directory, whether you are expecting twins yourself or are a birthworker, midwife, doctor or anyone who wants to understand more about twin pregnancy and birth.

Now relaunched with a supplement that corrects, updates and clarifies some information. The supplement is also available as a PDF here www.aims.org.uk/assets/media/1359/twins-supplement-2025.pdf

“This book gave me the confidence during labour to ask for an internal podalic version and breech extraction, instead of a caesarian for my transverse second twin. Thanks to the AIMS Twins Guide, I knew that the procedure had a very high success rate. My second baby was safely out within twenty minutes, and I was able to avoid major surgery, and go home the same day”.  - Susie, twin mum
