Oh Jeannine, that is such a hard question. So many babies react differently to differrent things. Maggie is also 11 weeks old and I am crate training her. She sleeps all night from 8:30pm to 6:30am. Most people would find that hard to believe. She is a very good baby. During the day, she plays in her playpen or in the kitchen behind a baby gate. I take her out to do her business after she wakes, eats or playtime. Any time I can sneak an additional PP break in there I will. She gets a treat upon re-entering the house. She can do her business faster than anything I have ever seen. Must be the treat she is thinking about. Which ever way you choose, I'm sure it will be fine.
