6mo can self settle to sleep but not in the middle of the night?

[Donut93]

My 6mo will have her milk downstairs before naps, has a 10 min play, then goes upstairs down in her cot awake and she'll go to sleep with her dummy- same with after her bath, feed downstairs, story, bed.
But she's still waking 3/4 times in the night and won't settle without milk?
I know she can go sleep without it, just not sure how to get her to sleep longer, as when she's fed in the night she never takes more than an ounce or 2 so I know it's just for comfort. Any tips on how to get her to sleep longer and not wake up so many times in the night? Thanks!

Does the dummy not work in those situations?

Do you do a dream feed?

At that age, DS had a bedtime feed at 7ish then we did a dream feed at 10.30 which kept him full through the night.

Could be hungry/thirsty.

Sounds like she always goes to sleep with a full tummy of milk. Even though she's not feeding to sleep, it sounds like she's not used to going to sleep without milk in her stomach.

I would love daytime feeds to be given as soon as she wakes up, rather than when going to sleep.
