Wait a few years. You’re baby is still in the 4th trimester (google it) so things are especially difficult at the moment but it’s normally for her to need milk over night for at least the next year and then after that is normally for your child to need you over night some times up to the age of 7 years old.

Hi OP, what's your bedtime routine like? What do you do when she wakes up and is she having a feed at night? I honestly wouldn't worry about having a 7yr old who can't self settle at night!

Baby will likely
Not sleep through until they are about a year old. Some can sooner, some are later. Do you have access to a health visitor to
discuss how you and baby are getting along?

At this age your baby will just want to be close to you all the time and many parents find that their babies will only nap on them during the day. Although there may be more success getting them to sleep in a cot at night. As PPs have said, it's normal and expected for young babies to wake through the night. They tend to be able to go for gradually longer periods between feeds though, as they grow and their tummies get bigger.
