Hi there. First, congrats on your new baby.
I know having a puppy can be so stressful, its like having a new born baby (i imagine). I think in a way its good when they have accidents in front of you, this way you can gently show them its not allowed. She doesnt know that furniture and carpet are different from grass or pee pads, we need to teach them that. Just give a firm No when you catch her doing it (not after because she wont know what you are talking about)

Also try to name potty time. Ziggy knew this command pretty soon so I could tell him Good Potty and reward or Bad Potty.. I can say he was 90% potty trained at around 7 months.

Dont worry It does get easier I promise.

P.s I hope your dog will be able to help with your BP, hang in there, it'll be worth it
