Abstract
Pregnancy poses significant physiological demands, and women of extreme short stature may be particularly at risk of complications. Described here are two pregnancies in a woman who was 130 cm tall with a body mass index of 12 kg/m2 and the maternal and neonatal outcomes. The challenges encountered in the care of our patient included cardiorespiratory compromise, management of medication dosing, management of delivery and bleeding risk.
