Same thing worked for us.... When we had Annie sleep in the crate she would wake us up many times during the nite or just plain early... But having her sleep with us in the bed seemed to solve that. Now she sleeps through the nite.... It's funny on the weekends she wakes up at like 6:30 or so... But on the weekdays when I need to get to work and I am rolling out of bed at like 7 (which is already way to late) she looks at me like are you crazy and just takes my spot when I hop in the shower
