Abstract
The comparatively asymmetric growth pattern in twin gestations, initially evident at 32 weeks of gestation, is consistent with the concept that the intrauterine environment becomes constrained in its ability to sustain growth in twin fetuses. Near term, nearly 40% of twins would be classified as small for gestational age based on a singleton growth standard.
