I remember with my youngest daughter, her crying fits were often soothed when I packed her in her carseat, buckled up myself and I drove around the block a few times with Bonnie Rait's CD playing. Not exactly my favorite thing to do at midnight, but that phase didn't last long. And I discovered that she'd sleep straight through morning if I did this. Congratulatons to your niece and nephew! Carol,

They didn't want to go to sleep in their cribs. Babies want to be held. I learned to sleep holding them while they nursed.
