4 Month Old Not Sleeping Through the Night

My daughter has been sleeping through the night since she was about a month old. In that last couple of weeks she has started waking up to eat at least once and just waking up 3 to 4 times a night. Is it to early to just let her cry herself back to sleep? ( She has been eating rice cereal for about a week now nad still is not sleeping through the night the cereal doesnt seem to be bothering her stomach wise or anything like that)

How Do I Get My 4 Month Old to Feed from the Bottle?

My 4 month old daughter is too used to the breast and will not feed from the bottle. When we try and give it to her, she fusses, screams and cries until we give her the breast. We've even tried Avent, Dr. Brown, Nuk, etc nipples to see which one is closest to the real thing. We've even tried feeding her with the bottle in the morning when she is the most hungry but that doesn't work either. Will she get better if I start feeding her rice cereal? This makes it really hard to leave her with a babysitter. Any suggestions would be greatly...
