9 month old still needing milk in the night?

Just wondered if this is normal? She still wakes and gulps down a bottle at around 3am. But when she has a bottle at night she drinks less milk during the day, doesn't finish her morning or afternoon bottles. Occasionally she will sleep through and then drinks more during the day. Should I force the issue and try to get her off the night feed or carry on going with the flow?

My HV suggested giving my dd a weaker bottle at night (5oz bottle with only 3 scoops of powder) this helped as she resettled but didn't fill herself up and so get into the cylce of not feeding in the day and being hungry at night. After a few nights of this she decided it wasn't worth waking for and she went through the night
