Hello!
I am new to the boards, so please forgive me if this question has already been askes, wasn't able to find it.
I have a 2.5 yr old, and a 5 week old. With DD1, I applied the Easy routine and had great success. However, now that it's the second time round, I am finding that the BW approach to sleep training is too time intensive to apply consistent when there's also a toddler in the house who requires my attention. (Both girls are Spirited types, wouldn't ya know!) I have just started shush Pat to train DD2 to sleep in her crib, and after 20-30 mins she STILL hasn't settled, and now her sister is up and needs me. I know there must be moms out there who use EASY with older siblings in the house. Though I do my best, there have been times I've left DD2 to cry it out bc her sister needed me. Tracy doesn't address this issue I'm her book other than to say not to do that. What have you done to navigate meeting the needs of multiple children witj differing schedules and needs with only one set of arms?
