Why can everyone get my twins to sleep but me!?

[30Jackson]

Hi everyone - I’ve not really used this form a lot but I’m desperate.

does anyone else have an issue getting there babies to sleep (my twins are 13months)

we have a super strong routine and at nursery they get them down for a 2 hrs nap my husband can get them down for a 2hr nap. But when it’s me on my own I get nothing -45 mins. It makes me feel like a totally awful like I’m the worlds worst and useless with them. I don’t understand what I do different to everyone else!

any advice or similar experiences??

Thanks x

Because you are the centre of their world and they dont want to miss out on you!!

What does Dad do that is different from your 'technique'?

Maybe you have to use a firmer tone of voice.. maybe tuck in, kiss and walk away?

You will already have discovered that twins know all the buttons to press.. in stereo!!
My sympathies.. x

Is it any better in the buggy? They drop off and you can wander round the shops and get a coffee.

They like you best.

Plus if you still BF you smell amazing to them.

Are you BF? That's probably why.

You are also probably less likely to leave them to cry and self settle which I would bet is happening at nursery.

Because they want to be with you!

Dts only ever slept on me, on others, in the car or the buggy until they were just over one.

Thanks all! That makes me feel better! Nope not BF anymore - same technique as dad.

I think a walk and a coffee will b todays tack tick!

thanks all!
