Hello, this is a concerned dad asking, hope some of you have been in my situation and will have some advice for me. My wife carried through high risk pregnancy, with bed rest at hospital, and gave birth to our baby boy at 28 weeks. Only problem he experienced so far were caused by formula and nurse told us he'll most likely soon be off CPAP machine since his lugs will develop enough. After that hopefully happens, and he starts gaining weight again after they change the formula, how soon before we can take our son home from NICU?

Are there some weight/ height or progress that we should especially monitor, or do they discharge preemies after a certain period of time?
