16 days

Babies are doing well. Luke took the car seat test last night and passed! So he no longer wears any monitors and is ready to come home. We have requested that if possible, he stay in the hospital until Thomas is ready to come home (if they have space - if they run out of space, Luke will come home). Thomas is scheduled to take the car seat test Sunday night. So there is a good chance Luke and Thomas will be coming home on Monday! Mason is doing well, he just still needs a few of his feeds by NG tube. He is improving though. He has very few "events" so I think that once he gets the eating and growing figure out, he will come home quickly. He will probably be I for another week.
Update - when I we t into the hospital today, they also informed me that mason had actually pulled out his NG tube In the night. Rather than replace it, the nurses just tried really hard to make him take all his feeds by bottle. In the morning, the dr decided to try him on demand feeding today. He has done ok taking his bottle, but sometimes has not taken the full amount. Hopefully he still gains weight tonight. Anyways, if he gains weight, they may also try the car seat test on him Sunday evening with Thomas! And he could com home with his brothers! So that would be very exciting!
