Bb girl wakes up earlier and earlier

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
So when bb girl was 1-3mo she'd sleep from 8pm-8am and maybe wake up 3-2 times.
Then she started waking up at 7am then 6 then 5 and now sometimes 4.
Her bedtime has always been 8pm and she goes down pretty easily and only wakes up once to eat.
Sometimes when she's done eating at 4am I'll bring her to our bed and she'll sleep with hubz and I sometimes till 630 if I'm lucky.
But what I wanna know is why does she keep waking up earlier and earlier?? Should I be putting her down to sleep at an earlier time or cutting a nap or what?
TIA

    My DD has started doing the same thing.  She was such a good sleeper and all of the sudden she turned 8 months and she's not sleeping more than 3 hr stretches at a time, ugh!  I'm assuming it has to do with a growth spurt.  I suspected possibly teething but she's not screaming when she wakes up.

    My DD gets up 500 every day no matter when I put her to bed. I tried 8 pm bedtime and 6 pm. Always up at 5. She's much happier and sleeps better when put to bed earlier. Maybe try earlier? Maybe she's overtired so not sleeping well?

    My LO used to do this. Try changing the temp in her room. If the room is to hot or cold they won't sleep that great. My LO sleeps with a fan and she will sleep from 7pm to 7am rarely wakes up at night to eat.

    Tried putting her to bed at 7 and 6, still woke up at 5 or 4.

    I also tried keeping the house cool by keeping the AC on and her ceiling fan is always on at night.
    Idk what to do :(
    She gets 10hrs of sleep and I'll maybe get 4. I can't sleep so well at night cuz my ulcerative colitis keeps me up. Thankfully my auntie has been here to watch her in the morning so I can sleep but she's gonna be leaving in a month so I'm worried about what's gonna happen when she leaves :(
    Sorry, this kinda turned into a vent.
