Advice for bedtime with two children

[Gurla]

Hi guys,
I have two children Bill and Bob. Bill is 2 and a half, Bob is 8 months.
Bill goes to bed on his own, in his room - sings and talks for up to half an hour.
Bob is fed to sleep on the sofa and carried up.

I'd like to start putting Bob is bed in his own room without feeding, I'm going to use the same technique of leave him 2 mins, go in, leave him etc. I used it before and am happy with it.

My question is, how do parents manage with two children at bedtime? Do you put baby down first, wait for them to fall asleep, or do you to toddler first? I'm worried that they will wake eachother up as they are going to sleep.

Any advice please?

Personal experience..with 2.25 age gap now age 5 and 7. It's chaos haha...we've flipped many times as to who goes down first but I tend to get the 'easiest' one down first and then the less easier one down. Sounds like Bill is pretty easy and self-sufficient...I've never got on well with a joint bedtime as mine are bonkers and gang up on the grown ups at bedtime. It's all about divide and conquer ime

Put baby down then toddler. If baby fusses I'd go back in but mine at that age both went to sleep without issue, though I was bath, story, feed, bed and I'm outta there from day one so by three months old a well working routine! Putting baby down first meant the older one 'felt' like he was older and not always second to baby's needs.
