Here's the deal. SHe could be hungry or she could have formed a habit. I am not a proponet of the let it cry concept. I think it gives them insecurities about us and other things. But that's another story. This is what we did. I don't know if she is on formula or breast milk but this works either way. Put whichever one and rice cereal in a bottle, shake it up and give it to her right before bed. You can purchase cereal nipples or easier is to cut an X in the top of one she is used to. Use a razor blade or xacto knife. How much depends on how she does. If she sleeps but starts waking up again a few nights later, mix it alittle thicker the next time. By this age, my son's was so thick it was crazy, but we started this at 8 weeks. Next, are you talking to her, cooing etc when she does wake up? This has become her social time alone with you , no distractions. If it isn't food, then keep the lights off, sooth her with out talking and put her back down and leave. Continue doing this until she is back asleep. this takes a little longer but she will learn to soothe herself and she will realize you aren't talking etc.
