Sleep training – live report 26
Feeling less guilty…
Another pretty good night. Ok, so Multimummy was being hypersensitive and only dozing from 5am as BabyBoy was shuffling around, but no-one really got up until around 6.20am…and then amazingly BabyBoy resettled so the day didn’t officially start until BabyGirl woke up everybody (she did a great job of sleeping through) at 6.45am.

So what changed? Continue reading

Another Multidaddy-in-charge-of-monitor-in-another-room report…
‘BabyBoy called out a couple of times, but it was literally one noise each time and then he went back to sleep. He didn’t actually cry until 6.40am’

On the 16th night Multidaddy takes the monitor and is in charge of BabyBoy, while Multimummy looks after BabyGirl. Here is Multidaddy’s report…
