6month twins sleep 😢😑

Hi,

Im the mother of 2 six month old perfect twins (boy girl). We cosleep (safely) with them because since day one they did not like the bassinet and would wake up every 30 min or so. We tried really hard to have them sleep alone but it was impossible since my husband works at 4am and uses machines at work so he needs to be rested. I don’t have enough help to be able to wake up that often and still function during the day.

Cosleeping was working perfect for us… up until now. Our twins discovered each other and are starting to form a bond. While it’s absolutely adorable and beautiful to see… it’s not at night 😅. For past 2 nights my son wakes up and since he crawls now he tries to touch his sister…. When my daughter wakes up at 5 she tries to talk to him and wakes him up. And they have a party together and mom’s not invited. Last night I slept about 4 hours and night before about the same.

I think it’s time to sleep train them… I just want to know what’s worked for twin parents, specially those who ho transition from cosleeping to sleeping alone. I feel guilty doing that to them I don’t know why. I also don’t want to do the frying out method.

I’m desperate please give advice.
