    What does she eat for breakfast? Will she eat porridge? Both of mine sleep terribly and are grazing and hungry all day if they don't eat porridge for breaky, it is odd how much a difference it makes.
    But I would try giving her more food, more often, through out the day, make sure she is really *done* when she finishes dinner.

    Once you do that, you will probably find it easier to break the bottle habit, I would think. Is there a reason you don't offer her a cup of milk before bed, instead of sending her to bed with a bottle?

    I tried porridge, but she wasn't keen. Will keep pushing it though & see if I can get her to give it a go.

    And its the sucking thing as well. Comfort. I don't have a good sippy cup, or the money to buy one (can't buy them here) & a normal cup would end up on the floor She drinks from a cup or drink bottle most of the time & its rare that it all stays in it. No matter how close I am, it only takes a second to dump it. (Behaviour issues i mentioned in OP, thats just one issue).
