All I have to say is that the press has it wrong on some points. They reported that the babies are drinking bottles!!!! WHAT?!!! I think they mean they are drinking milk through feeding tubes!

How is that possible???? Their suck reflex is in already? Mine were on feeding tubes for awhile and then did bottle. And mine were "big" compared to hers????!!!!

Ours did this too, so it is possible. They went home really quickly for 31.6 weekers. They may however take a while to get up to full feed so they can be released.

I won't comment on the amount of children she's chosen to have. But I will say that my 1 lb 9 oz and my 2 lb 1 oz babies were both nippling feeds from a bottle at 2 days old. Mine were born at a slightly older gestation (32 wks), but they were tiny.
