Default Nighttime crate training: Good news & bad news

The good news is:

Daisy is 9 weeks old and didn't potty at all last night between the hours of 9 p.m. and 7 a.m. When she woke up at 7:00, I put her in her playpen and she went straight to the potty pad and peed bunches

The BAD news is that she woke up every 1.5 to 2 hours whining to get out of her crate. So, I took her out, assuming she needed to pee. I spent 10 minutes or so with her each time, trying to coax her to pee. She just wanted to sleep.

I'm not sure where to go from here. Since I know she can hold it that long, should I let her whine herself back to sleep a couple of times during the night, instead of getting up with her *6* times? Or should I continue to get up each time, just in case?
