Bottle vs breast (not what you think)

I have noticed the past few nights that my DD sleeps much longer (5 - 6 hrs) when given a bottle than when breastfed (2-3 hrs). Why is that? Anyone else experience this? What do you do to ensure baby gets the most when nursing?

    If it is a bottle of formula it's bc babies digest breastmilk much quicker than they do formula. Although, I can relate if it is a bottle of breastmilk too. My baby will down 5 whole oz when taking from the bottle bc it's quick and easy for him. I doubt he's taking 5oz when taking directly from the breast.
