You have to decide bed or crate. If you want her to sleep in a crate you can't take her out when she cries (except to go potty). Every time you do you are teaching her that is what she needs to do to get out...or even better in the bed. It's amazing how fast they learn this. You will drag out the sleepless nights for so much longer than if you had ignored her.

Sometime it helps if you put the crate right next to the bed on the same level. She can see you and you can comfort her with your touch.

Good luck!! A lot of people can't take it and just put them in their bed.
