I started Toby out in a crate. He didn't care for it much but did ok for the first month. Then we went to visit our son and like you, I worried about him not settling down. Oops. He's never been back in the crate to sleep since then. We never even bother trying with Lola...they both sleep right in the middle of the bed. I worry sometimes about them, but they usually sleep snuggled right up to me. No real help here either, but at least you know you're not alone.
