  • Title: A triplet maternity in a reduced population with excessive twinning.
    Author: Sheets JW.
    Journal: J Biosoc Sci; 1995 Jan; 27(1):117-9. PubMed ID: 7876292.
    Abstract:
    In 1991 a triplet maternity of same-sex (FFF) occurred in a depopulated community of Argyll, Scotland, with a history of excessive, same-sex twinning. Due to a stillbirth and its confidentiality, the maternity was recorded as a twin birth. Using public registers may result in underestimation of rates for higher multiple conceptions and births in local districts.
