6 month old extra night feed

EDIT sorry duplicate post, added more detail here as I couldn't edit or delete the initial one
.
Im after a bit of reassurace/confirmation! My formula fed 6 mo old daughter went down to one night feed from about 9 weeks old, then started waking once more again at 3.5 months so feeding twice until just before she turned 5 months when she dropped down to one again...until last week we are back up to two. I naively thought the one was going to be more permanent this time then slowly off them completely and I just wonder if from all your experiences this sounds like growth spurts/slight regressions? I've read about waking out of habit but she always finishes or nearly finishes the bottles and is asleep straight after. So I think she's just genuinely hungry. But want to make sure I'm not missing anything.
I always try putting her dummy back in at first but she doesn't settle.

She has 4 bottles between 7am and 7pm, approx 6oz each (has never taken more than that at a time) goes to bed by 7, first waking is always around midnight then another at about 4.

We have started weaning; just bits of puree at the moment

Same!! My daughter is 6 months and since we started weaning has done the same, she does seem to be genuinely hungry because she literally drains the bottles through the night. So I’m assuming normal! X

@Mcousin99 How are things going? I’m going through something similar with my 7 month old
