When triplets are born on different days: A case report about delayed delivery

Multiple pregnancies carry an increased risk of preterm birth, mortality and long-term infant morbidity. We report a case of delayed delivery following a trichorionic triamniotic pregnancy. The pregnant woman was hospitalized due to preterm premature rupture of membranes at 26 weeks. Tocolytics and corticosteroids were provided. Despite these efforts, the first fetus was born vaginally, 48 hours later. After delivery, antibiotics and tocolytics were administered to delay the birth of the remaining fetuses, which occurred after two weeks. All three babies are healthy, with normal neurological development, and the postpartum period was uneventful.
