Morphology

multigravida = gravida (semi-transparent) = multi + gravida

The form is structurally clear as multi- + gravida, but the base 'gravida' is a specialized medical term, so the meaning is only partly transparent for typical learners.

Etymology

Multigravida comes from Latin parts multi- 'many' and gravida 'pregnant', so as an adjective it means 'having been pregnant more than once'.
