*Week 28*
One week ago Beck and Tori had to go back to school. Neither of them could really pay attention, they were too busy thinking about their boys. Carson had been the biggest at 1 pound and 8 ounces and Connor the smallest at 1 pound and 6 ounces. All three were on more machines then they thought possible. The doctors said their lungs weren't developed enough to breathe on their own and they were machine feed by an OG tube. The still couldn't touch them. From right after school untill ten at night they would stay with them at the NCIU, knowing full well that there was still, even after 2 weeks, a chance they might die. They were identical, even with all the machines covering them you could tell they looked exactly alike. Tori was sure that if Beck was that size, he could be their quadruplet, the doctors agreed. The boys looked almost exactly like him. hey were just over 2 pounds now, all three of them. Beck and Tori were less stressed then they had been, they were one month old now. It had become easier to concentrate in school and all the NCIU nurses knew them by name. The boys were developing well, even if they still couldn't hold them. They were allowed, if they were 100% sanitary to touch them though the incubator on some days, it depended on how they were doing.
*Week 30*
Tori was sure she could see the boys grow. They were pushing 3 pounds and were twice as big as when they were born a little over a month ago. They weren't sure how the NCIU staff got diapers small enough it fit them, but finally they had a size that small enough that did. The started to open their eyes and Beck swore that Connor was looking at him, even if only for a moment.
*Week 32*
3 and 3/4 pounds. Both Tori and Beck agreed it was a huge number. They were becoming even less paranoid, but still asked the nurses about everything they did and how it would affect them. All three were about as big as Beck's shoe with they were thrilled about as Beck's feet weren't small. Everything was going way better then anyone could have predicted.
*Week 34*
They were two months old and four and a half pounds when Tori and Beck first got to hold their boys. They probably could have earlier, but wanted to wait untill the were for sure strong enough. Carson was breathing on his own and the other two were close behind. Tori could feed him herself every few days. She loved his thick patch of dark brown hair, he had the most. However the doctors said it would probably still be another month before Carson could go home and even longer for the other two.
Next up Weeks 36-40. Will Carson be able to go home? Will Connor and Carter get off oxygen? Will I get five reviews? The world may never know the answer to the first two if the third one isn't answered yes.
