hope i can help with the sleepless nights

hi mums and dads,my little girl is 5 months old and since after week one she has slept from 7:30pm till 9am maybe 10am, ive always had a routine that she has a bath at 7pm with bedtime baby bath and bedtime baby wash but then when she gets out of the bath shes upstairs and getting ready for bed what i tend to do when getting her ready is to use the bedtime massage cream and just rub it into every part of her body n get her dressed it seems after as if she is really relaxed and then has a feed n then straight to bed although she mayb awake i turn off the lights but leave the hallway light on she may gurgle for a few mins but then is conked right out, but i always make sure she doesnt have a feed at least 2 hours before bedtime cause otherwise shes too full or if shes screamin i give her a little just to pasifie her, i kno that when she was 4 weeks old she had stopped sleeping through and was just demanding more of her feeds at least 7-8 9oz bottles in 24 hours so spoke to h/v and she said that the breast milk and formular wasnt satisfiying her anymore so i needed to move her to the hungrier baby formular although she started weanin a month ago she has been waking up about 10pm for a 3oz feed n falls asleep drinking it n then thats her but its not every night, if anyone needs any help please give me a shout
