I'm only putting weight on my big toe in pointe shoes?

try spending a whole cl, more up on the box and see how that feels. You should have equal weight between you big toe and the toe next to that one when you are off pointe. But, en pointe, you should focus your weight more equally. Most likely, if it doesnt look like your all the way up on demi, then you probably aren't. stretch out your arches and turn out more. It definitley takes time, so dont stress if its not perfect yet. Just, be persistant during cl. Also important!! Do NOT sickle your heel. You could hurt yourself really bad that way! If your foot begins to sicle, stop, and turn out your heel slower. Sometimes it really helps to have someone who knows what they are doing, to place your foot properly, so you now how it feels.
