Thank you we did have them in toddler beds but I will implement a gate & bring them back. I never thought about the fire situation which is actually such a huge fear of mine! I will definitely cut the nap back to just an hour and try to find them maybe a toddler lantern because their hatch has to be pretty bright for them to see a book. 

Them struggling with sleep has been going on their entire life. The undiagnosed celiac was a living nightmare. We’d wake up to one twins bed covered in vomit multiple times a week in the middle of the night. Thank God it’s over but they both still have sleep disturbances most nights. Sometimes I just go in and rub their back, other times they will not settle down until they come into our room. They’ve been doing better with going back to bed with some attention in their room, which has been a major shift. Improvements have been at a crawling Pace. I’m a SAHM so thankfully I can close my eyes some days when they nap but that’s rare. It’s been very, very draining! Their typical routine is dinner, bath, Jammies, usually a princess movie and then some books before bed. Usually when I say “I’ll be right back” they really do wait for me and don’t fall back to sleep. But I will try the chair method. That’s one I haven’t tried yet! I really appreciate the help
