2 year old still waking through the night

Just wanting to hear from others in similar situations and how you dealt with this. My almost 2 year old still wakes through the night. Mostly only once but can be up to 3 times. She has never been a great sleeper and has recently dropped her day time nap. Even though she is tired through the day, it is a struggle to get her to nap. My husband has been getting up with her through the night as we also have a 9 week old. She has milk before bed and when she wake up We usually give her another bottle of milk (I realise we have now created this as a sleep association) even though I know at this age she's not waking due to being hungry. She will scream until someone gets her up and provides comfort to go back to sleep. How many Mum's have a little one of similar age doing this is as well?

All 3 of my children did this at that age just ride it out and don't stress about it too much they will and do all grow out of it

My daughter did the same thing at that age, never been a good sleeper. She's only just sleeping through the night now and she is 6.
