I am exhausted. I have 9 month old DT's who don't sleep through the night and I think I am really sleep deprived. It's making me so bad tempered and miserable and puting a terrible strain on my relationship with my DP. Friends with babies told me I would get used to the disturbed nights, but I'm not. I find it almost impossible to sleep during the day. I am beginning to think I am doing something wrong with the twins that they are not sleeping through the night. Guess I am looking for some advice or even just some reassurance. Is it normal to feel this tired and low?

Thanks everyone. DD slept right through the night last night for the first time ever! DS had a terrible night! He is teething though, but I just persevered with the sips of water and calgel, and didn't give in to milk. I feel so much better that I can see light at the end of the tunnel. I don't post very often, but any time I have I have received such good advice and support. It really helps.

Hurray Am so pleased plj. And am sure your son will soon learn from his clever sister that sleeping through the night is the way to go. I've got one excellent sleeper - would sleep anywhere, anyhow, any time quite happily -and one terrible sleeper. Think it's often that way. However, with a bit of training DD2 (the bad sleeper) is getting the hang of it, bless her, and is a much happier baby for getting decent sleep! She also has a far far happier mummy who feels that her life is not only worth living but that actually it's quite nice!!
