 Get ready for some cryin time
I have a Richelle pen too. ...the first week all my baby did was howl at night and boy what a set of vocals, I couldn't believe it. So I put her in a crate with cozy bed inside. And placed beside my bed. That worked for awhile but these little darlings want their momma and YOU are it. I would get up twice a night to pee her, then when she stayed dry all night or I should say quiet cause she would "ask" to be let out to pee , I ended up letting her sleep in my bed. And she can't get close enough. All they want is security so be patient.....it's a transition for them they are taken away from everything they have ever known into the strange and unknown.......anyway I don't use the pen much anymore cause it is on our main floor which is tile and her home area. We block off the other room when we leave and she has a pig pillow she would rather lay on.
I put the pen on another level with pee pads and she uses that but doesn't the cave bed inside.......me oh my..she is 8 months old now, and take lots of pictures , they grow fast!
Good luck to you! |
