Kaiser Permanente Discharges Baby Jonah, The Last Of The Octuplets

The last of the octuplets, baby Jonah, was discharged from Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Center earlier this evening and has now gone home to be with his brothers and sisters. At 4 lbs 10 ounces, Jonah has now demonstrated that he can gain weight, maintain his body temperature and is able to bottle feed. He was the smallest of the octuplets at birth, weighing just 1 pound 8 ounces. He progressed steadily since that time and is now ready to go home.
