The foetal movements were first felt in the second week of January 1971 at 18 weeks gestation (uterine size 22 weeks). She developed mild hypertension on 2 April 1971 and was admitted for rest. An X-ray of the abdomen then revealed a twin pregnancy. The following day she fell down and twisted her left knee and developed a painful haematoma. No fracture was detected. A diagnosis of torn, left semi-lunar cartilage was made and plaster of Paris was applied to be removed in labour. She made a good recovery and went into spontaneous labour on 18 April 1971, and had an uneventful delivery of twin male babies, weighing 2-32 kg and 2-5 kg. Her second baby was an assisted breech delivery with binovular placenta. Both babies were healthy, and survived.
