Formula feedings for 8 month olds

Ok, I am new to formula, my guy has only been breastfeed but since I am pregnant my supply is dropping so I have started using formula too. My little guy is waking up at night more now and it is killing me. How much do you put in the bedtime bottle? Do you still get up to feed in the middle of the night? How long is your 8 month old sleeping?

    My LO drinks four 7 ounce bottles every 4 hours plus 3 servings of solids a day.

    Marcus is almost 8 months and has been completely FF since 6 months.  He now gets 3 solid feedings a day and 4 bottles during "waking" hours that are usually 5-6 oz.  He will NOT take anymore than that.  He typically will wake once per night for an additional 5 oz.

    Just FYI, he's usually gets his last "waking" bottle around 6:15 pm and is sleeping by 6:30ish.  He wakes between 3 and 4 am, then back to sleep until around 6:30.  He has made it several times all the way through to 5:30 (then won't go back to sleep), but also has nights every once in a while where he wakes twice to eat.
