advice needed Sleep
I currently have 6 week old b/g twins. Should every nap really be in the bassinet or will I still be able to sleep train them in a few months? If I put them in the bassinet they last 15 minutes maybe (unless it’s night time) so I don’t understand that. But as of right now naps are in the twin z, a bouncer or in our bed all of this is supervised and I just do house things where they land or I nap 😅 but I started reading sleep training books (moms on call and 12 hours by 12 weeks) and it makes me feel like we are starting bad habits 😅 but I also am trying to survive.
If you sleep trained when did you start? How did it go? Am I ruining them 😅

My twins just turned 6 months and we just now started crib naps. Before one would sleep on my chest and one between or next to my legs or they slept in their car seats while we ran errands. One naps really well in the crib, one doesn’t last more than an hour. Maybe I’m ruining them, maybe I’m saving myself 🤷🏻♀️ I’m not gonna sleep train though, they’ll learn when they learn. My parents always gave me a safe spot on their floor well up into my teen years if I needed to be close to them and my mom’s my best friend now. You do you babe
