Is it possible that when you're getting up to feed and diaper the new baby at night that your pup wakes up and you don't hear her? Perhaps if she's awake in the other room, and not sleeping through her urge to pee, she is going in the crate because she is not being taken outside. Maybe before the baby came, she could hold her pee because she slept through the night? Also, please be patient like others said and remember she's just a baby herself and can sense your frustration and anger. I'm sure you're exhausted, but this too shall pass. BTW, congratulations on your newest little addition!! Good luck

Oh, and please give her food and water at regular intervals, she is too tiny to go all day on one meal.

Boy you have your hands full as a Mommy. I think the play pen or Xpen is a great alternative and safe for your little girl. You can set up the crate, food and potty area. We have trained our boy to go outside but at those times when we are not attentive or available he uses the pee pad. We were able to confine him to our kitchen/dining room. It worked for us. Now at a year old he now has access to the living room. One thing that happened that I want to tell you about is our boy had a urinary tract infection. I noticed it when we began using the white washable pee pads. Just too many little piddles. If I didn't have that evidence I wouldn't have suspected the problem. Had to get a sample and went to the vet and took care of that. It made our potty training work perfectly. Just a thought. Don't know how often she's going.

So when are you going to put some more pics of Kennedi on here? She is just so beautiful.
