Confronting the Taboo of Multifetal Pregnancy Reduction: A Qualitative Study of Maternal Decision‐Making in Triplet Pregnancies
There is a need for improved care and support for parents facing the decision of continuing a triplet pregnancy or deciding on multifetal pregnancy reduction. Efforts should focus on fostering open societal dialog about this taboo subject, and addressing the gap in aftercare to provide comprehensive support to women post-decision and post-birth, thereby establishing a more supportive and compassionate framework.
