    Question for you all...

    Did your twins sleep in the same crib? If so, how long? Or did you find it better for them to start off sleeping separate?

    Thanks!

    My girls slept in the same crib till they were 4 months...then I put them in seperate cribs cause they were starting to bump into eachother when they started to roll.

    Mine only slept together for about a month, after that we had to seperate them because they were disturbing one another. Now they sleep together again in their 'big boy bed'.

    Mine slept together until about 3 months, and then went into seperate cribs. THat was about the time they lost the ability to ignore each other's cries at night. Thankfully, they are back to doing that again!

    the babies slpet together till about 3 months. Funny thing was once they were separated night time sleep extended fast...still in the same room but I guess they wanted their own space.

    Till about 9 weeks. They did just fine going to own crib. I, on the other hand, stood there and cried. Can you say HORMONES!?

    Mine only slept together the first week. They slept better separated after that. Now Evan moves waaaay too much in his sleep to even consider letting them sleep together.

    Our guys were in the NICU for 9 weeks. They did not co sleep in the NICU. So they were separated from the get go. But when we brought them home we only had one bed (we were not prepared for them being so early). So we were forced to co sleep. But it worked out great!! Our guys seemed to sleep better this way. When we got our second bed, we separated them (around 4 months) it went surprisingly well! Even though they were co sleeping, we had them on separate sides of the bed.

    We seperated them at about 4 months with no problem.

    We're at 2 months and it's time to move into 2 cribs - we're just waiting 'till we come back from Grandma's house. They're getting long enough that they're running into the sides and waking themselves up when they skooch around (we've got them side-by-side with their heads and feet at the sides of the crib).

    3 months in the same crib in our room. Then separate cribs in the same room.
