Teddy is just a baby, and is really too young to be away from his mother and littermates. A puppy this age would never normally be sleeping alone, so this is probably very stressful for him - it's normal for him to cry if he wakes up by himself. I would recommend having him sleep in your bedroom, either in bed with you or in a crate right beside you, so he knows that you're there and doesn't have to feel scared if we wakes up at night.
