Gravida 3 para 0 plus 1?

As far as i can see this doesn't add up. The Oxford Handbook of Obstetrics and Gynaecology explains the terminology as follows: Gravida x, para a + b x= the total number of pregnancies (including this one) a= the number of births beyond 24 weeks gestation b= the number of miscarriages or termination of pregnancies before 24 weeks gestation Given this information, your example means that your lady has had 3 pregnancies (including the current pregnancy if she is currently pregnant). Para 0 means none of the pregnancies were delivered beyond 24 weeks. There has been one termination before 24 weeks. There is therefore one pregnancy unaccounted for in this example.
