At the mo Noah and Lola share a room which has been fine up until now, but as Noah is a big fatty and still insists on getting a bottle in the night he is waking Lola up with his crying so then she wants a bottle as well or she screams the house down, I know Lola will sleep through the night as she has been doing it for agers, I also want to stop feeding Noah at night but I don't know how to go about it without them both screaming the house down.
Any sugestions???? ------------- My beautiful big girl Sienna 15.04.06 Double the trouble double the fun Noah & Lola 10/11/07 |

wat about putting the youngest in your room for a week or so (guessing that is the one that still has bottle) until he is weaned off..........i gave my boy water at night instead and then took him off that ........worked a treat..........but every baby is different :-) ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

They are both the same age I have twins, I did think about doing that but I am then worried that he will get used to sleeping in our room and i don't want that either  ------------- My beautiful big girl Sienna 15.04.06 Double the trouble double the fun Noah & Lola 10/11/07 |

*waves* Hi Floss Sorry to hear Noah is still waking up at night for a bottle - I was going to suggest trying the water thing too. Could Lola and Sienna share a room for a while, just until you can wean Noah off the bottle and get him sleeping through? Would depend on their bedtimes etc though I guess. Good luck, hope you get uninterrupted sleep again soon! (And pop in to say hi to us Dec ladies too |

Sorry, support but no ideas here as I have found the only positive approach was to split the kids into different bedrooms.  Have you PM'ed Emma? I think she left her twins in the same room and found that they learned to sleep through each other's howling.-------------  |
