Quadruplet pregnancy - what does this mean

What happens during the disease - quadruplet pregnancy
Quadruplet pregnancies occur when four embryos implant in the uterus at the same time. this can happen due to a variety of factors, including the use of fertility drugs, advanced maternal age, or having had a previous multiple pregnancy. quadruplet pregnancies are also more common in women of african descent. the high number of embryos can put a strain on the mother’s body as she tries to provide enough nutrients and oxygen to all four fetuses. this can lead to increased risk of preterm labor, low birth weight, and other complications.
