I am a first time mom of 4 mo old bbg triplets. my boys sleep in their cribs most of the night but my daughter will only sleep inher swing. I know this is terrible. If I put her in her crib she wakes up in an hour or two and wakes up her brothers (share a room). any suggestions? My husband and I disagree, he feels that I should let her sleep there until she just doesnt want to anymore. I'd be grateful for any suggestions/comments.

Ugh Thats a tough one, but as easy as it is to say I would say to try and transition to some sort of bed. I would try to put her in a pack and play or even a pallet on the floor. I agree that is not worth waking the boys so I wouldn't put her back in the room until she is sleepping in longer intervalls. Maybe try to let her cry a bit before running to her rescue! I am lucky, I have bgg trips that have slept in their room all night every night since they were infants (now 2 1/2). Good luck and my best advise always is to keep them on a strict schedule for everything!
