MCMA = Monochorionic monoamniotic

A monochorionic-monoamniotic (MCMA) twin pregnancy is a sub type of monozygotic twin pregnancy. It accounts for the minority (~ 5%) of monozygotic twin pregnancies and ~ 1 - 2 % of all twin pregnancies. The incidence is ~ 1 in 10000 of all pregnancies 2.

my twins are MCDA which means:

Monochorionic diamniotic

A monochorionic-diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancy is a sub type of monozygotic twin pregnancy. It accounts for the vast majority (~ 70 - 75%) of monozygotic twin pregnancies although only ~ 30 % of all twin pregnancies.

I know 2 people who have had MCMA pregnancies and all babies survived.
There are extra risks but you will be monitored closely.
