[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 393979, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]We set up limits & boundaries for the tweedles if they couldn't sleep. Once they hit the age of 12 if you couldn't sleep they were allowed to be up but had to stay in their bedrooms. They each had a television & used it; many times fell asleep to the white noise of tv better than anything else we tried. I kept the hall light on & they each had a bedroom snack basket (contained a juice box, some crackers & a piece of fruit). I also set up bed tents so kt & wm felt swaddled & safe in bed. Kept those on their beds for years. They each had a sensory box filled with rice & several types of beans that was soothing & like playing in a sandbox. Again, it was in their rooms for years. husband & I spent more time than usual settling them in each night but it was well worth the effort. It took time but when the tweedles figured out we were not going to cave to their incessant whining or yelling (once it hit rage or meltdown mode all bets were off) they settled into a routine of their own. I had video cameras in their rooms so I could check on them with-o entering their bedrooms. Good luck [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
