If it's possible, do you have any suggestions on how to accomplish this? Or
is it not worth it until they are older?



Hi Gayle,

My boys were on a nap schedule at 5 months. I certainly don't thinks yours are
too young, but all babies are different. A good "guideline" is 10 am and 2 pm
for naps. Of course if they are not waking up until 9 that won't work. What
time do they go to bed at night? Maybe you can get them up earlier in the
morning so they are tired around 10. I really believe in strict sleeping
schedules, especially with multiples. They should be waking, napping and going
to bed at the same times every day. I guess that's easy for me to say...God
knows it has to be SO much harder with three than two, but I really believe
that babies will adapt to the sleep schedule that *you* dictate. And it will
keep you sane knowing that you have a few hours every day when they are all
sleeping (or whatever the duration is). It might take a week or so to get them
all in sync, but it'll be worth it if it works.

Good luck!
