What is it when a twin is reabsorbed by the body in the first trimester resulting in extra amniotic fluid and umbilical cord double in size?
The phenomenon you are describing is known as "vanishing twin syndrome." It occurs when one twin is reabsorbed by the mother's body during early pregnancy, usually in the first trimester. This can lead to an increase in amniotic fluid and may cause the surviving twin's umbilical cord to appear larger than usual due to the changes in the uterine environment. This condition can sometimes be detected through ultrasound.
