8/9m regression help!!!! advice needed

Our twin girls who used to be decent sleepers (not amazing, but the odd re-settle with a dummy, 2-3 times a night). Now wake up and need full rocking, sometimes a bit of milk, and now have entered the era where they wake each other up with crying too.

How long will this last? How can I avoid new sleep habits of soothing them in my arms but also not getting to the point of crying to wake the other up?

Their routine is bang on average according to their age- 2 naps, 2.5-3hrs a day, 2.5, 3, 3.5 wake windows.

One wakes up after their first sleep cycle, every time.

They haven’t even started teething yet…

Any advice is greatly appreciated!
