Q&A: My 3-year-old twins used to be good sleepers, but all of a sudden they are both struggling - help!

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg and I talk about...

  • Why sleep challenges often emerge around age 3 (Hint: developmental leaps, dropped naps, and growing imaginations all play a role).

  • How to differentiate between bedtime battles, middle-of-the-night wake-ups, and nightmares—and why the strategies might look different for each.

  • Practical ways to set limits and routines with confidence so kids feel safe and contained, rather than running the show.

  • Special considerations for twins, including when it might make sense to separate them temporarily at night.

  • How to care for yourself as a parent during exhausting phases, so you can show up with more calm and confidence.

If bedtime has turned into a nightly struggle in your home, this episode offers validation, perspective, and concrete tools to help everyone get a little more rest.
