They were in the nicu for 20 days for weight gain. My little guy didnt need any oxygen or any help with feedings at all. Baby A was on cpap for a few hours and had a feeding tube for a bit. He was actually ready to come home after 16 days but the were able to keep him there so they could come home together
twin A was 4lb 14oz
twin B was 4lb 4oz
stayed 2 weeks in the NICU
Baby A was born vaginally and weighed 5lbs 1oz
Her sister was born via C and weighed 6lbs 3 oz
No Nicu...came home with me after 5 days
Stella was 5 lbs 10 oz

No NICU and they came home with me on the 4th day. :)
Baby A was 1 pound 13 oz.
Baby B was 2 pounds 5 oz.
They were born at 28 weeks...but most don't have their babies that early. I'm not sure even why everything happened the way it did to make me have them that early. I mean I did have PROM but I had a lot of things going on before that too that landed me in the hospital. Don't worry - I don't think you'll have your babies that early. Good luck! Everything will be fine :)

No known reason why, I was fine beforehand.

But that is not the usual, obviously, from the many posts above.
