Well they have both almost doubled in size in six weeks so I think they're doing great. Well done.

Those sound like great gains and weights. My sister had her twin boys 1m early. They were born 4.1lbs and 5.6 lbs. Yes a big difference. The 4.1 is still trying to get past some underdevelopment issues. But both are on the road to great recovery and where they are supposed to be. They were born
7-27-06.
Sounds like your twins are doing great. I would consult with the doctors (they sound like they are samll enough they are probably still in the hospital) I know here they let babys go home at a min. weight of 4.5lbs, if they are doing well.
Did you have boys or girls?

Baby weight gain is generally 4-8ozs per week. However, this can be very different for premature babies, twins, or low birth weight babies. You Health visitor should be able to plot their weights on a growth chart - this will show what percentile their weight is - as long as their weight gain follows a steady gain - it's fine. Likewise, low birth weight babies play catch up pretty fast and then follow a more steady gain once they've caught up.

They are still alive, yeah I would say that the groth rate is ok. I lost two brothers in the 60's who weighed more then that when they were born because the technology was not as good. Blessing on you and your twins. I hope they grow up big and strong.

Congrats on your babies! The weight seems positive to me, but it's best to consult your pediatrician as he/she knows the details of your babies treatment and progress.
