No ma its not advisable to use solids in night..
Maybe your breastmilk is not sufficient for her..
To know whether she is crying for feeds u can measure your breastmilk per feed by expressing it using a breast pump..
Health Tips
Must be atleast 30-60ml/feed.

Hi! You need not give foods throughout night, it’s not recommended. You can give some snack post dinner or late night you can give milk that should be enough.
Check for other reasons why is the child waking up.
