Charlie Sheen's Infant Son Remains Hospitalized

One of Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller's twin boys has not been able to leave the hospital.

Max Sheen is still hanging in the hospital nursery, despite the fact that his brother Bob has already set up shop at home.

"Charlie and Brooke's infant son Max remains in the hospital, not because of a heart condition as reported, but because he has not gained the weight necessary to leave the hospital," Charlie's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, said in a statement. "Max is expected to reach the weight requirement shortly and will join his brother at home." 

Even though it must suck to not have both kids home together, Charlie is managing to keep his sense of humor in tact. 

"The weight issue is very common among infants who were born before reaching full term," the actor said. "I know a lot of people are not fond of hospital food; I just didn't realize that they started so young."

"The Sheens appreciate the outpouring of concern," his rep said, "but have assured everyone that both Bob and Max are fine."

The twin boys were born on March 14.
