         P 1) #  full term pregnancies
            2)  # between 20 and up to 37 weeks
            3) # up to 20 weeks.

       A a twin or triplet pregnancy counts as one pregnancy but you end up with 2 or 3 living children.
           So you could be P1002. Ectopics will usually be in the third slot.
