My 4 month old sleeps from 10 pm til 8 am, no sleep training, I just feed her plenty during the day and after her last feed at 9pm she doesn’t need food until the morning, babies need 150ml of milk per kg of their weight in 24 hrs,once they start solids it would be less than that, once they have that amount they won’t be hungry, unless they’re having a growth spurt.
If they wake up at night offer water or hold them for 5 mins.

the night? my baby is bottle fed and a big 10 month old. she still wakes up a couple times a night for feedings. when can I expect her to wean herself and not need food at night?

When she stops getting teeth. Till then expect her to wake up in the middle of the night.

Echoing everyone else to say you can start cutting out feeds. As long as she’s fed at night she’ll keep waking up. You may have a hard few weeks while you’re cutting feeds. If your husband can help, that’s super helpful. Mine couldn’t.

You’re very lucky. Most babies wake during the night wanting to be fed.

You can pat her, or croon or sing to her. You can consider moving the sibling for a few days, if they're a light sleeper, or use a noise machine to minimize the disruption of some crying. They'll both sleep better for it in the end.
