    Sleep Expert Shares Secrets for Twin Sleep Training (Stephanie Fischer)

    Stephanie Fischer, a sleep consultant specializing in twins and toddlers, shares her journey and how she became a sleep consultant. She dispels common misconceptions about sleep training, such as the belief that it involves letting babies cry it out. Stephanie emphasizes that sleep training teaches babies to self-soothe and does not mean ignoring their needs. She also discusses the surprises her clients have experienced, including how quickly sleep training can work.    Stephanie highlights the challenges faced by parents of toddlers and provides hope that it's never too late to change sleep habits. She advises parents to commit to a plan and be consistent to achieve success. Lastly, Stephanie addresses the unique struggles faced by twin parents, such as sharing a bedroom and waking each other up. Sleep training twins can be challenging but rewarding. Room sharing is a major difference for twin parents, as they have to manage two babies in the same room.    It's important to resist the urge to rescue one twin when the other cries, as they need to learn to adapt to each other's noises. Keeping twins on the same schedule is crucial, even if it means waking a sleeping baby. Twins may have different sleep needs and may drop night feeds at different times. Sleep training is a parent-led approach that can make parenting more enjoyable and less chaotic.   Takeaways   Sleep training teaches babies to self-soothe and does not mean ignoring their needs.
