What the countdown covers
Early pregnancy (weeks 6–12)
In the early weeks, the tool helps you understand the basics of a multiple pregnancy including how twins and triplets develop, what early symptoms may feel like and what to expect at your first appointments. You'll learn about chorionicity, early scans, screening options and how your care pathway is shaped from the start.
Second trimester (weeks 13–24)
This is when monitoring becomes more regular. You can find out what each scan is checking for, how your babies are growing and what your clinical team will be watching for. You'll also get practical advice on work, planning ahead, emotional wellbeing and preparing for life with more than one newborn. There's also lots of information about how your body will be changing.
Later pregnancy (weeks 25–38)
As you move into the later weeks, the tool supports you through more frequent appointments, birth planning, recognising symptoms that need urgent review and understanding when twins or triplets are likely to arrive. You'll also find guidance on birth options, neonatal care and getting ready for the early days at home.
