Im 17 in a few weeks and I have a set of 17 month old twins and I'm not with their father. They are called Poppy and Daisy. James has access to them for at least 20 hours a week. I have a routine that has been in place here for a year and it works well and suits my life, they have a bed time between 7 and 7.30 and are up at 5.00 am and they usually wake at around midnight for a cuddle. The day is just as routine as they go to a creche while I carry on at school so they get lunch at certain times etc. Well My problem is when they go to their dads their routine is disruppted. We've sat down and spoke about this so much but we can't reach an agreement on it. He has a good routine in place at his house but he has another child who has just turned 4 and James (the twins' dad) is quite a typical bloke, he's laid back and relaxed so he will let the twins nap for more than 4 hours in the afternoon and they won't sleep at night. I was wondering if anybody else has problems with keeping their babies in some sort of routine when they have 2 homes. Is it still important to have a routine when they are my two's age? Thanks ↓
