lastkiss, last week we had a day where they napped like crap and went down around 4:45 pm - I expected them to catnap, but they were still sleeping at 7:30. I woke them up, they were miserable for a half hour, then we fed them and put them to bed. We've kept a similar schedule since then, and they're doing okay. Twins are so hard - babies switch their routine often enough, and we deal with it x2. Lucas sleeps less than Violet, so balancing trying to keep them on a similar schedule with their need for sleep is rough.

lastkiss and river It is tough with twins, but it will get easier. I remember the first couple months with the boys being tough with sleep. We would get one to sleep, but the other would still cry. Each night we'd put them to bed at the same time. We did parts of Happiest Baby on the Block to calm them both until they went to sleep. They settled into the routine and it got bettef.

Did the break-off board close down? A Place to Meet/However it Happened? I popped on occasionally to check the multiples board and it appears to be down.

I had the old name bookmarked, oops. The twins are napping like poo today. I'm following the EASY schedule, and they just don't want to settle for sleep. Violet was just making noise, now is back out, only to have Lucas babbling. Sigh. I had ambitious plans for dinner: smittenkitchen.com/2009/08/tomato-and-corn-pie/

I had a med check with my primary to start back on Adderall. While there the scale made me happy to see I've lost 10 pounds over the last month. Only 16 more to get back to where I was pre baby. My primary wants to discuss with baby girl's pediatrician to make sure all is well. I've already discussed with pediatrician who gave me the all clear.
Also, I now exclusively pump. It is so much less stressful.

Congratulations on the weight loss, pinkmickey24! I need eat a little healthier - being home, I graze all day. The weather here has been rough lately - hot and humid in the morning, and pouring rain in the afternoons. I try to get out every day, whether for a walk or a trip to Target, but it's been tough.

The hair falling it has started. Super annoying. Pretty sure I'm gonna be bald by the time it stops.

I'm pretty sure we're at the beginning of the dreaded sleep regression. It also appears that DS2 is about ready to move to 3 naps per day from 4... sigh
