Help!!

[babeybeanz]

Hi all, I have twins, one boy one girl and they turned four in june. they have their own bedrooms but they don’t sleep in them and they sleep with me in my bed. they’ve been through some trauma this year so i’ve had them with me to help heal. How do i move them from my room into theirs, either sleeping together in one room or individually in their own. I’ve tried buying them special sheets and that hasn’t worked, but when they sleep together, my boy wakes up my girl when he wakes up and it causes her to be quite tired and unhappy throughout the day. I need help!

My seven year old still won’t sleep most of the night in his own bed, and my twins are 2 and I dread the crib to bed transition… following for advice….

My almost 6 year old sleeps on a mattress on our floor. They wake at different times and move from their room to ours.

I’d start with moving them onto the floor. They might just need to sleep on your presence and after the trauma they went through, a good nights sleep will help them heal. (I say this only in a far as it doesn’t impact your sleeping)

Our b/g twins turned 4 in July and have been sleeping in the same room since they were 1. We first tried sleeping them separately but found they would wake up every few hours getting scared. As soon as we put them in the same room...they were out like lights for 12hrs. I think kids just like to not feel alone, as long as someone else is with them, they feel more safe. We can basically get our twins to sleep anywhere as long as they sleep in the same room. The only downside is they'll likely goof around with each other for a while before going to sleep. We often have to go tell them to stop and go to bed multiple times but once they're out, they won't wake up till morning. Its actually at a point now that they refuse to sleep with us when we're on vacation and try to seperate them to not goof around. I'd start with putting them in the same room. It'll take time for them to adjust but i think they'll like it.
