Any words of wisdom/advice appreciated.
Have 2 dcs, 5 and 3 (just). They have both always had a good bedtime routine, upstairs at 6pm, bath or wash together, story, songs, lights out at 7pm. They are frankly shattered at that time.
Dh and me do bedtime together fortunately, I read to dc (3) and dh reads with dc (5), and its the only chance we get for him to practice his reading. Dc (3) is a live wire and it wld not work having her in the room whilst reading practice takes place.
Just had twins. Whilst too early to establish a routine yet, its been a bit stressful the last week or so, as babies have their witching hour at 6pm, screaming, unsettled etc, wanting to feed (I give them something to keep them going before we go upstairs but not working) which is stressful for all concerned and ending up me bouncing them on my lap whilst simultaneously singing/reading.
Any advice, tips? X
