[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I am like you. My brother is the same. The answer for us is do NOT nap during the day but go to bed VERY early. I have twins who are now older. But when they were babies, I needed to start my nighttime sleep when I put them down at 9pm. We’d cycle through feedings a few times a night and I wouldn’t consider it morning until 9am. So I essentially needed 12 hrs of interrupted sleep to equal 8/9 hrs of regular sleep. My brother’s kid slept through the night early on without any training, so he lucked out, but I think that’s rare. I sleep trained at 5 mths and that was a game changer. I don’t know what the guidance is now or whether it’s controversial, but it was totally what we did 11 years ago and with twins, you need to do what you need to do. [/quote]
