Hi and welcome to YT!
Princess Sophie is just about 6 months old and we are in the midst of the exact same thing. We started with pads because we always want Sophie to know there is an option for her if it's pouring down rain or so cold no one wants to go out. LOL

I am going to be trying the washable pads because I can sew and it would save us a great deal of money over the long haul!

Sounds like you are looking for immediate assistance so I would concur with the previous poster that suggested making and keep a tight schedule. I understand the inconvenience in living in an apartment and trying to potty train a puppy. It is more than a challenge! It can however be done and done successfully! I'm sure you will be able to handle this. If you have more specific questions or others please don't hesitant to ask. You're on your way!!
