The gravida para notation (comment) would be written on the medical chart of a teenage or older female of childbearing years. The comment, basically a form of medical shorthand, is typically found on the chart when a female visits a gynecologist, fertility clinic, or is seen by any medical personnel regarding a current pregnancy.
Specifically, "gravida 2 para 0 1 at 20 weeks" means this:
A woman in her 2nd pregnancy (gravida or gravidity) with zero (0) live birth (para or parity) and now is pregnant (1) at 20 weeks into her pregnancy.
A gravida 3 para 1 0 1 at 26 weeks means:
A woman who has had 3 pregnancies, the first resulting in a birth, the second resulting in 0 birth, and the last number 1 being the current pregnany at 26 weeks.
Nulligravida = a woman who has never been pregnant.
Primigravida = a woman who is now pregnant for the first time or has been pregnant only one previous time.
Multigravida or secundogravida = a woman who has had several to many pregnancies
Gravida = The number of pregnancies, regardless of whether the pregnancies were carried to term. So if egg met sperm and resulted in conception/pregancy, that pregnancy is counted even if the fetus was miscarried or aborted.
Para = The the number of more than 20-week ( written as >20-week) births, including viable and non-viable births, i.e., stillbirths. If a multiple birth (twins, triplets), it is counted as one pregnancy (one pregnancy - multiple births).
Abortus - a term that is added IF a woman had a miscarriage or an induced elective or medically necessary abortion
Note: For any pregnancy to count as a "birth" the fetus must be 20 weeks or more.
