Shortened bedtime to 5 min for twin 22 month olds
This helped us get our 22 month old twins back to having good sleep habits after a regression. Even when they slept well, our bedtime routine took 20-40 minutes each night after tucking them into their cribs. But now we are able to bring the girls to their room, tuck them in and leave. I also liked that this helped us transition them from crib to floor bed. The girls had been crying wanting to sleep on the floor bed but the few times I tried, I didn't feel it was safe yet at their age (for example one would wake up drowsy, cry and stand up then fall or hit something in a half awake state). I don't think any sleep approach will be "easy", but I liked that this approach is responsive to the child.
