Over at Twitter, Bizzybee had a suggestion for getting kids to sleep that I thought I would pass along:

“Try vacuuming while she naps during the day. They get so used to noise while they sleep that they can sleep through anything.”

I’m with her. We made normal house noise and the kids quickly adjusted.

My other big tip is to never let them fall asleep before putting them in the crib. Once they get all calm and cozy put them in the crib so they learn to put themselves to sleep.

I keep wondering why those of us struggling with this (disease??) don’t gang up on the little buggers. One of us could get up with all of them for a night and then we could rotate. Wait…that might be the lack of sleep talking.

Thanks, I was hoping readers would enjoy the post. As far as helping out with things such as waking at night, I guess my Dad set a good example for me. Also, I’m a light sleeper

very funny…it is about time someone verbalized (textized) the struggle that all of us have endured for decades…I am so glad you are talking about something that moms of past generations silently experienced ALONE because back then most dads didn’t even recognize the need to help. I am not saying they did not love their kids as much as the dads of today because I believe they did and do ….but things have really changed.
