Hi there
It sounds to me like your LO is just hungry. It's normal at this age to still have at least one night feed, or a dream feed and some LOs need more than 1.
Is she BF or FF? BF babies tend to need more night feeds.
With regards to sleep training, it sounds like your LO is already sleeping independently and when the time comes to wean a night feed you will be able to do this gradually over a week or so and at the end of this period she will just stop waking. Weaning a night feed when LO is ready isn't bad, I remember worrying about weaning my DS's night feed (which was at the DF time but he woke for it) and in the end it was so simple, no upset at all. I just did it gradually over a number of nights. I think he was 8 months. His day time milk didn't increase right away but I think he increased after a little while to make up for it.
hope this helps
