Help- litterally at the end of my teather!
Our twins are now 1yrs, boy/girl and the little girl is litterally driving me mad!
She's increadibly clingy and has to be with me constantly through out the day other wise we have winging which escalates into crying, paddy etc etc.
If it was one baby this would be at least managable but with her twin plus, a 5yr old, chores etc i do not have enough hands to cope and as much as i hate to admit it patientance to cope!
to add to this she isn't the best sleeper (could probably count the times she's slept through on my fingers..)and does not go down well we tend to spen the whole evening going up & down constant crying etc..
I just don't know what to do for the best anymore normal sleeping methods don't seem to work- can't leave her to cry it out for long otherwise she'll wake her brother, PU/PD is useless???
And the clingyness??? What can i do??
Any advice would be welcome.

I've tried the walking away and saying mummy will be right back but she just follows crying. I can get her to play with siblings if i join in to(which i love) but if i get up or back off she'll realise and follows immeadiatly!
I do the milk thing or water well offer it and she'll just scream refusing, obviously i check bum etc but its just nothing and she wont settle....urgh i don't know i guess we'll work it out.
