I thought I would ad a little personal advice here! After having twins almost 6 months ago, I never thought that I would have them sleeping throughby 3 months. In fact the were born 6 weeks early and spent their first 3 weeks of life in hospital. When they cam home, thats when the nightmare at night began. I was up every hour, functioning on zero energy and extremely tearful. Over the weeks as they started to take more during a feed, I started googling on how to get a baby to sleep through. I saw tips about letting them cry it out, letting them get to 6 months first and all kinds of other ideas. I decided to do the routine thing. Bath at around 8 ish then bottle then bed. I would get them up around 10-11 to feed them again though. Remember that newborns NEED to feed every 4 hours (ish) and should not be expected to sleep through. When they can take about 6 ounces of milk in one go, then try! For me that was around 3 months of age, bearing in mind they were premature. I found that over the weeks they would wake up later and later. For example, one night, I would put them in bed at about 9 after a bath and feed, then feed them in their sleep at 11pm and find that they woke at 4.30 am for another feed. Sometimes earlier. But over the weeks, 4.30 became 5.30 and now they sleep from about 8 until 6.30 7.00 One thing about putting your baby down- if the baby is not tired, dont even bother, they will just scream and scream. After a few weeks of a routine, when they have naps through the day, they should start to get irritable in the evening and then its time to bath them and put them down. I got a musical cot toy so that they associated they sound with sleep time. Luckil for me it worked. DAmn you should have heared me 4 months ago!!!
