The patient's obstetrical history is defined as G6 (total number of pregnancies), T1 (term births, which is the singleton born at 39 weeks), P4 (preterm births, which includes the two sets of twins born preterm), A2 (abortions or miscarriages in the first trimester), and L5 (living children, which accounts for all five children born).
