M$Just stop feeding the baby at night. Seriously. Sometimes, they just need comfort, not food. So, soothe, but don't feed.
Start slow if you must. Feed extra before bed time. Then, give an extra 30 minutes every couple of nights before you "cave". Be prepared for "setbacks", because life is like that.
Here's a nice blog on it:

However, if your baby is older than 4-6 months, and is getting enough calories in during the day (about 28-32 ounces per day), he/she does not have to eat at night. By this time they bottle or breast becomes a comfort tool for them when they wake up at night.
Once you baby is ready for night weaning, gradually take them off the bottle/breast. Give a smaller and smaller amount at each feeding until you have eliminated it at all. Once you have removed the bottle/breast from your baby's nighttime wakings, pat their back (without taking them out of the crib) to comfort them back to sleep.
Good luck!
