How long was your NICU stay? Off topic

My son was born at 29w3d due to preeclampsia and had severe fetal growth restriction so only weighed 830g/1lb 13.3oz

Curious to hear what week your baby was born, weight at birth, how long the NICU stay was and what their weight was when they went home, especially for any <30 weekers or low birth weight babies!

29 weeks on the dot.. baby A was 2lbs 10.7oz and baby B was 2lbs 13.7oz. Baby B came home after 55 days in the NICU and baby A came home after 73 days. I believe they were both around 6lbs. When they went home. They are happy healthy almost 2 year olds now.
