Baby wakes up many times at night

Hi, my 14 month old daughter is still not sleeping through the night. I have tried multiple bed times, but nothing seems to suit her. I put her down at 9:00pm every night. She wakes up at 11:00pm crying and then again around 1:30am and 4:00am every night. Her days begins between 6:30am-7:30am every day. I thought she should have grown out of it by now, but it doesnt seem to stop. I am a very tired mother now and have not slept well since she was born. She has almost all her teeth. She never wakes up smiling. She wakes up crying even from her naps. She takes 2 naps every day for 1hr - 1.5hr. Please help. I am very exhausted now.

Thank you for the prompt response.
1. During the day time she is a happy baby. She is learning the concept of giving these days. She plays with her toys and interacts with her grand parents alot. She only feels a little bit of anxiety when mommy leaves the room, but as soon as you divert her attention to something interesting she is fine. I work during the day time from 8:30am to 5:30pm and she loves to greet me at the door every day when I get home or her dad gets home.
2. She doesnt like to play with her toys much. She would much rather play with stainless steel spoons/plates, or run around playing hide n seek, or play with the phones or remotes - anything with buttons. She loves music and dances to any tunes. She started walking and now running last month.
3. When she wakes up at night, she is always crying and I always find her standing in her crib and crying slowly (no tears, just crying sounds) when I get to her in her room. She has been eating solid foods since 7 months old. She eats well during the day, and I always feed her right before she goes to bed. She has never drank from a bottle so I give her milk in an 8oz glass with a straw and she generally finishes it with half a banana as well. She has a bedtime routine of massage, bath, food, cuddle/lullaby song, bed.
If her dad goes to her at night when she wakes up, he sings to her and she calms down instantly and goes back to sleep within 10-15 mins. If mommy goes to her at night, then she wants to breastfeed, but as soon as she latches, she will calm down and wont even suckle much. She goes to sleep within 20-30 mins.
She only wants to breastfeed at night. No breastfeeding now since she turned 1.
hope this helps. please tell me if I can give more information.

Hello. I have Belladona 30 but in liquid form. Can I giver her that instead of the pills? I do not have Cina 30 available where I am, but after asking about it from my local store, I have access to Chamomilla 30c and Pulsatila 30c. Can you suggest if any of these will do. Again, all three are in liquid form. So, how can I administer liquid form to her and how many drops?
I also have access to Nat Mur 6x in tablet form, if that is helpful/useful in any way? I live in a very remote place in Canada and dont have ready access to homeopathic medicines easily.

Thank you.

You have not reported your baby's response to the Belladonna which was prescribed.

It is very likely that baby suffers from some gastric imbalance and you already have the remedy Nat Phos 6x with you. Would you like to give her half a tablet after a meal and report her response?

You should also ensure that she does not overfeed at night as this too can prevent her from sleeping soundly.

Ar her age of 14 months it is not unusual that she does not sleep throughout the night and either you or your husband may have to lull her to sleep when she wakes up.
