I'm pretty much going to answer the same as above! I had this problem when I had two little guys start (12 months.) They were barely getting any sleep. They were cranky. I was cranky. I even tried a few different things with set up. Eventually I just let them cry it out in the same room. One learned to fall asleep before the other but had no problem blocking the crying out. Now, they both go down right after lunch, will each talk or laugh or do whatever for a few minutes and then eventually fall asleep. They are in there until 3:00 whether they fall asleep at 2 or wake up at 1:30 ...they know they aren't getting out! It's tough at first but like anything, it's gets easier.
