Tips on caring for premature babies?

Anyone have tips? The doctor wants to do an emergency c-section in like three days if my fiancee's condition doesn't get better.

Babies won't be sent home until they are healthy and safe. Finish that nursery. Get lots of rest. Have a support system in place. Two babies will eat and sleep twice as much as one. You and your gf or wife will be so weary. So sleep when they are home. Forget an immaculate house. Eat well. Ask people to help. Enjoy. Take lots of videos and photos. Your wife will need added rest because of the C-section. She will not be able to lift much. Have the nursery well-stocked with supplies. Do you have a monitor? Consider having a mom-in-law come stay a bit. That would help. Or friends. Be prepared for a major shift in hormones in your fiancee. That is natural. Be kind to one another. Accept food or help from anyone. Lots of people will give advice. Use what is common sense. You will learn as you go. Enjoy!

@PoetryNEmotion Thank you very much!

She has carried them almost to full term. I wouldn't think they would be that underweight now.
A lot of women have their babies a couple of weeks early.

@FreeSpirit1 Yeha I know, but I also like other opinions too. I'm worried
How early will they be born?
