How do some moms put your one year olds to sleep? I have twin girls and they sleep while I’m breastfeeding them *yes both of them at the same time* so it’s real uncomfortable but for me that’s the only way to put them to sleep but it has caused some problems between me and my husband because my twins sleep in our bed and there’s no space left so we don’t even sleep together no more so I’m trying to find a new way to put my one year olds to sleep and also stop breastfeeding for good this time. Any advice I’ll hear anything at this point lol no but seriously help

Swaddling still works ... wrapping them up tight in their blankets, when they can move a lot they tend to do just that so when they’re kind of “restricted” they’re likely to just go to sleep, especially if they still take pacifiers, the swaddle gives them a sense of warmth and security as well

@heavensent3, good luck. I’m sure it can be done faster but I wasn’t in a hurry. I’m sure there are other ways to do it too, that’s just what has worked for me:)

@heavensent3, it’s not easy! I did it over time and in stages. I hate when they cry too. My babies wouldn’t take a bottle either until I weaned them and they realized that was the next best thing. lol. I weaned them over the course of a month taking away one feeding at a time and ending with the favorite bedtime feeding. I didn’t want it to be too traumatic for them bc nursing is such a security to them so I wasn’t in a hurry but after a month of me taking away feedings and offering the bottle both of them had switched and were bottle babies.

@elenalee, it sounds easy but I have tried giving them a bottle but they just won’t take it I’ll try again and let it go longer because their cries would be really loud I would just give in and breastfeed them so they could stop crying

I weaned my babies and then got them to take a bottle and once they were used to going to sleep with the bottle I would lie them in their beds and then eventually transitioned them into going to sleep in their beds with their bottle on their own. That’s what worked for us but I never had to do two babies at once! Good luck!!
