    Hmm, the only reason I don't know if that will work, is cos it could go on forever...

    I think its best to do the Supernanny advice a la Amberj - don't talk to them at all after the first 2 times. Just put them back and leave the room. However I have also done that myself and lost count after 48 times back to bed.

    Now I sit in the room until she goes to sleep. I don't talk to her (cept for an occasional sshhh), don't interact with her and she drops off within 30 mins, and that is dropping back minute by minute. JOY!

    We have a safety gate on the bedroom door. Pity he shares a room with his brother and annoys him in his cot.

    I personally would try the safety gate as well so they cant get out. I would leave them in there.. together.. even if they fall asleep on the floor while playing you can go in and put them into there beds later..
    Since they think its a game you going in there every 2 seconds.. not going in at all.. they wont get the same excitment as before.

    Even if they need to poop.. I have left my son in his room till the morning, and then he went in the morning.

    Good luck.. such a nigthmare!
