Anyone else having a difficult time getting baby to resettle at night without a feed?

I tried to stop night feeds st 6 months old, managed 8 weeks of baby girl waking every 20 minutes. I offered water but she was not having any of it. After 8 weeks and becoming a complete zombie I have in and let her have her night bottle.

First she would sleep at 19-23, have a feed and sleep through till 6. Then she started waking up at 3 for another bottle (again wouldn’t settle without one)

It seems we have a few bad nights then a few good ones so I know she CAN go longer without a feed but I’m struggling since when she gets a bottle she’s finishing it so she must be hungry?

Last night was bad. She refused her afternoon nap and fell asleep at 17:30, we then had visitors who decided to ring the doorbell despite the door being open and them asked not to as the bell sometimes wakes the baby and she’s struggling with sleep recently. I was not impressed. She woke up, but was exhausted so I took her upstairs to bed. She then slept from 18-22, woke up for a feed, slept till 1, another feed, slept till 4, another feed, and is now back asleep.

I’ve slept terribly tonight because every time I’ve finally settled she has woken up. So the 3 hour stretch between 1 and 4 has been my main sleep. I wasn’t able to get back to sleep at 4, it’s not 6:10 and I have to get up at 7 so little point now.

Please tell me my baby is not the only one going through this?
