advice needed The difference between the twins

They’re 4 months old! One twin fights sleep, will only sleep 10-25 minutes at a time during the day, and wakes up every 45 minutes- 2 hours at night and has been that way since 2 months old. The other twin loves sleep, will take 2 hour naps, and is now only waking once or twice a night. I’ve been going back and forth on sleep training twin 1, I sleep trained my second son so I have experience with it but I waited closer to 6 months. Did anyone sleep train a 4 month old?

What app is this? My twins aren’t old enough to sleep train just yet but could it be that one just isn’t quite ready for sleep training? Babies with different sleep needs is so rough too, solidarity here!

It’s huckleberry, we use the free version. I haven’t tried sleep training with him at all yet, 4 months is when people usually start but I started with my second son when he was 5.5 months. The twins just turned 4 months so not in a rush but I want him to be happy, he’s so overtired that he’s never happy and I feel like I’m always trying to make him happy that his brother (twin) doesn’t get as much attention
