when we potty there is just a night light and the outside light on. i literally dont say two words to him. except "good boy" when i put him in his crate. and then he cries for hours.... no fun. making it til 4-5 in the morning is a huuuge improvement and i'm grateful for it b/c i was not even functioning that first week haha.
the only time i put lights/tv on is if we are getting up.
he doesn't have food in his crate but he has his stuffed animal and a kong...
he will cuddle up with me on the recliner and take a little morning nap... usually 615am or so... which is why i thought maybe put him in bed after the 4-5am potty break, and maybe we could sleep and skip the crying/barking/whining. buuut i dont want to mess up the crate sleeping he does from 10-4/5 ya know?? |
