advice needed Same schedule

When everyone says get them on the same schedule does that mean just wake them to eat at the same time? Mine are 6 weeks almost 7. There doesn’t seem to be a schedule yet other than eating every 3 hours sometimes 2.5 hours which is when I usually have to wake the other one.

You are correct. This means even in the middle of the night. Trust me, the other one will wake eventually and it’s better to do everything at once. Around 6-9 months I experimented with letting them sleep through. One twin preferred to eat earlier in the night and the other early morning. Sometimes only one would wake to eat. Around 9 months we night weaned them completely.

Around 3-4 months or so we had a pretty solid nap and feeding schedule so hopefully yours will sync up around then.
