My LO is going through her 4 month sleep regression as well but she went from sleeping 8-10 hours at a time to 5 or 6. I would LOVE to have 7 hours right now. Haha

But I have been wondering the same thing about creating a middle-of-the-night-feeding habit.... I really hope "it's just a phase" and she"ll go back to sleeping like she did before.

ay yi yi the 4 month sleep regression was a nightmare. Except ours was going from 10 hours a night to waking every 2-3. Brutal. My thought was this - I got her to sleep without nursing most of the times. There was always one time during the night that she was genuinely hungry, so I fed her for that one. She eventually only woke up for the one feeding, then she dropped it altogether by herself not too much longer.

@Thehistoryofus: has it right too - at 4 months, they are becoming much more aware and active during the day, and the new skills wake them up at night.

Does she go right back to sleep? You could use this as an opportunity to sleep train, or you could give in and feed her the one time and put her right back down. Just be sure to keep the feeding session boring, dark, and quiet so she doesnt start to associate it with fun times

I know its hard. But it does pass, I promise =o)
