Topic: When did your babies outgrow their swings and how did
you manage?

 My nearly 7 month old twin girls are still very used to
 napping in their swings. When we are at...

 My boys just turned 5 mo and are outgrowing their
 swing. I've been working with a sleep specialist who,
 literally, is a sanity saver. I had her do a speaking
 engagement for the moms as well as the Pediatricians at
 Kaiser DLC. The parents loved her and I was able t use
 what she talked about with the babies. At this point, I
 have 1 really good sleeper and one who wakes up twice
 through the night (which she is working on with me
 now). Her name is Karen Pollak of Babies to Sleep. Her
 specialty is twins as she is a mom of twins. She
 happened to mention how she's helping a family break
 away from the swing. I find these things to be very
 helpful:1) Having a bedtime routine (I spend about
 15-20 min of cuddly time with them, then change diaper,
 change into pj's, swaddle my poor sleeper & use
 sleepsack in my good sleeper, put ea baby in their own
 corner of the crib w/head touching side of crib, prop
 bottles of pre-mixed milk, then turn on their sleep
 sheep to rain setting. 2) EVERYONE has to be on board
 with doing the night routine the same way. This is my
 current problem. My husband thinks it's ok to
 swaddle/feed our poor sleeper in front of the t.v. Our
 son screams like someone is killing him so I take him,
 do the routine, and he falls asleep this way. My mom
 thinks he doesn't like to be swaddled & undies it
 during first dream feed. He doesn't go back to sleep.
 He doesn't like being swaddled but he needs it and
 sleeps soundly with it. 3) if/when they wake up in
 middle of the night, I don't pick them up AND I go to
 them when they first gently start crying. I have milk
 ready to go and feed them where they sleep (if both
 awake, prop bottle). I made it a point not to pat their
 butt or rock them to sleep. I find they don't fully
 wake up so it's faster for them to go back to sleep. 4)
 I only change their diaper if soaked. This may not be
 for everyone, however, I find the way to really wake up
 a baby is to change their diaper. So during the bedtime
 diaper change, I slather on Balmex. Hope these
 suggestions help. Again, I highly recommend Karen
 Pollak. She's very sweet
