Welcome to YT Melissa and Luna!!!
You sound just like me when I got my Cookie about 4 months ago. I didn't get much sleep the first week.
I had her crate right next to my bed and boy did she cry, jump and whimper...she would cry herself to sleep at times and I felt horrible about it. What made it worse was she got sick (diarrhea) so I had to keep getting up to let her go and clean up!!!
Well after she was well again I gave in and she's been sleeping in bed w/ me ever since. As soon as I let her sleep w/ me she just slept all night.
It sounds to me like you are doing a great job!!!! Don't worry Luna will let you know when she is sleepy or tired. Now that her pillow is in her crate she will soon make her way to her safe place to take her naps. I used to follow a similar guideline w/ Cookie, I still do when I am w/ her all day on weekends. I would let her play and play from the time she woke up (8 a.m.) until nap time at 10:30ish. Lunch is around noon or 1 followed by more play & another nap. Dinner is around 6 or 7, etc. So by the end of the night I play w/ her to tire her out but she seems to tire me out instead. LOL! Cookie is now 6 months and she really only eats twice a day w/ snacks (baby carrots or peeled green apple pieces) in the middle of the day if she won't eat her food at lunch time.
I have a similar set up so I would put her in her crate, leave the door open but just put a baby gate up in the doorway. After about 10 min. she would climb into bed and take her naps. If you have things to do around the house the best place for her is definitely her room w/ toys, water and dry food.
Are you giving your furbaby Nutrical? I'm sure you've heard of it...i still give it to Cookie about 1/2 an inch to an inch to make sure she doesn't get weak on me from playing soo much. They never tire of play!!!
Anyway sounds like your baby is attached already...keep us posted...
