Hey! I saw your post at the bottom.  DS is still BF and I was having the problem of him getting up in the middle of the night once to eat and then go back to bed.  A friend suggested to just take that away. So, in your case, take the bottle completely away.  When she wakes up, give her the paci...don't say anything to her...and close the door and walk away.  It might take a few days for her to completely get used to it....but now DS will very rarely get up in the middle of the night...i give him the paci...he falls asleep.  I would say twice i've actually had to feed him because it didn't work.  But I blame those on the fact he went to bed early those nights.

And if she fusses a little...it's ok.  I usually wait until he has fussed around 5 minutes before i get out of bed. 

I hope this helps!  It was great advice from a friend...so I hope you take your pedi's advice!
