Ladies in need of night time help!!

Okay I’m feeling completely confused and frustrated! My baby was born December 16 and had been a breastfeeding champ. She spits up and projectile spitups all day long but still is gaining a good amount. I have a fast letdown so that has been a little bit of an issue trying not to gag her so I’ll try laying back etc.
Now on to my question. I have moved up her bed time since she seems to be getting fussy and over tired. Right now I try to do her last feed at 8-8:30 but the past three nights when I try to feed her she is freaking out. Screaming crying, angry sucks for a second then starts wailing again and it’s to the point I can’t get her to eat at all. She’s frustrated I’m frustrated to the point I want to cry since I feel she needs that good feed to sleep well. She does cluster feed up to bed time. She ate at 4, 6 and 7. What in the heck and I’m doing wrong?!! Could I have missed her feeding window and forcing her?! This is number three that I have breastfed and I’m lost

Re: Ladies in need of night time help!!
Also, for a fast letdown it can sometimes be helpful to pump a little off before feeding LO so that they don't experience the overwhelming letdown. But if you've already got a work around, then disregard.
My doctor mentioned the pump but it sounds like a ton of work to hook up Ge pump just to feed when she usually goes 0-60 pissed when hungry. Do you mean hand pump?
