Oh Rizz - So Sweet!

They even have them in the same incubator together.

They look like they are a pretty good size also!

Ditto to what Kiwi said - send them the love of the BOL crew!

out of my mind
My best friend had twins at 24 weeks, without warning. Although one didn't make it past a couple of days, the other one did and is without defect now at 12 years old They didn't have the benefits your friend did and didn't get to develop nearly as long in the womb or get nearly as big (the surviving twin was 1 lb 4 oz, the other was smaller). I'm sure your friend's twins got the benefit of 6 extra weeks as well as steriods and other treatment pre-birth. Multiple births are so difficult, so good for her for carrying to 30 weeks. What a blessing. I'll also pray for your friend and her babies (from NM).

Can't see the pics, but I can tell they are just fabulous from the conversation. God is truly wonderful to have sent these little angels from Heaven and taken care of mommy too during this difficult time. May the road do nothing but rise up from here on. God bless the friends, too, who will come alongside and help them on their way.

All are well this morning. Max had to be put on a ventilator for most of the night but that is to be expected given their lil' lungs aren't developed yet. I think the babies size was due to mom having diabetes, so something good came from that!
The docs are still trying to get the mysterious infection all gone but it's looking better. The docs said the babies will be in the hospital for about 4 weeks.

Grat news, and the photo is really cute with them both in the same incubator.

As far as size goes, my best friend's first baby was full-term and weighed 4 pounds 2 ounces, so these babies shoudl be in good shape to finish developing in the hospital.

Just thought I would share these pics:
Max

Everyone is doing well. Mom possibly has something called Listeria. It didn't pass on to the babies and lucky for mom, they caught it just in time. They are running tests on her heart to make sure it's not infected.
Keep you fingers crossed that they get to leave the hospital as a family!!!
