It's normal my puppy did the same thing when I took him home. You got her at 7 weeks, thats not right for a breeder to sell it to you before 8 wks, you have to be careful b/c with a puppy taken away from the mother before then you have to worry about seperation anxiety.
Good Luck!

She's scared. You have to remember, you just took her from her mom and littermates. You may have also picked out a timid pup. You're going to have to wait a couple of days and just do the basics with her, take her out often, feed and water. Give her lots of love and attention if she will take it, otherwise, let her just take in her new surroundings. It's going to take time and patience.
Consider getting her a stuffed animal to sleep with, so she doesn't feel alone. Will make her feel like she is with her littermates.

This is perfectly normal. The puppy needs some time to get used to its new environment. Just try to gently pet her and show here your not there to hurt her. She should warm up to her new place in no time.

She is just scared right now. You have to remember that you just took her away from her familiar surroundings. Pick her up and love on her, talk to her, and pet her, she will come around, just give her a few days to get used to her new surroundings.

this is pretty normal...just like newborn babies puppies sleep a lot. If she is drinking eating and urinating and defecating normally i would not be overly concerned.

She's just scared. Give her a nice snuggly place for her to relax and give her some space. She'll come to you.
