No one can.

tire her out during the evenings, reasonably full meal, bedtime rituals, co-sleep?
Re: How to get baby to sleep thru the night
What does baby too when she wakes up? If she wants milk then offer him water in her bottle or sippy cup. I would suggest a sippy cup for water only because she might start getting up for water in the bottle as the bottle is soothing. She should not need to get up for milk at this age. Just offer her water the first time she wakes up and then milk when she wakes up after that. The next day offer her water the second time as well. It will be tough in the beginning but then it should settle down IA. Good luck and keep us posted.
Re: How to get baby to sleep thru the night
How much does she eat during the day and especially for dinner and at what time does she have her last meal?
How much does she sleep during the day?
If she wakes up during the night for milk, you need to increase her dinner portion.
Kids of her age should be able to sleep at least 7-8 hours straight but it's not unusual that some of them don't, probably just to annoy their ammas :D
Re: How to get baby to sleep thru the night
I feed her to sleep and then everytime she wakes up. I dnt know how to break this habit. She has only now begun to eat. She has her last meal about an hour before bed. And I co sleep too. Feeling exhausted
Re: How to get baby to sleep thru the night
My grandmother gives babies water if they wake up during the night for no reason (full tummy with no diaper issues). It's probably not the doctor recommended or the PC method but she has a fairly good success rate.
