Multiple Birth Center
Multiple Birth CenterAll parents know that with pregnancy and the birth of a child, life patterns change forever. Imagine the birth of two…or three…or four at one time! Parents with multiple gestations have special needs both during pregnancy and after. Sloane has experienced a 30% growth in the number of multiples in the last year - much of it due to increased success and usage of assisted fertility. The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology understands parents' need for extra help and has opened the Multiple Birth Center.
