My 4 month old baby girl suddenly stopped sleeping through the night?

Question

My baby girl is now 4 1/2 months old and she has just stopped sleeping through the night! She use to go to sleep around 9 or 10 then sleep until 4 or 5-- eat a bottle and sleep until 8 or 9! she did this like clock work and she had no problems being away from me in her bed. Now sometimes she wont sleep unless i hold her so im stuck on the couch all night! She wakes up crying and once i have her soothed [[ she isn't hungry its only been about 2 hours since i put her down the first time she wakes up ]] she doesn't seem awake at all when she cries but i tried just leaving her there to put herself back to sleep and she just wakes herself up-- so i just soothe her and as soon as i lay her down after she starts snoring... the second i lay her down she wakes back up crying! then around 1 am she wakes up for anoher bottle then finally sleeps until 5 or 6 and then wakes up to eat again [[ she has always woken up around 5 or 6  ]] and goes straight back to bed until 8 or 9 am! i get so tired... idk what happend!

Time line before change:
bottle at 9 or 10

Sounds like she's teething and in pain.  Buy some teething rings, freeze them and then give her one to chew on.  Also, buy some baby orajel and rub on her gums.

Nobody can't help you by the internet so I advice to go to a doctor. However, you could think over what is the reason she wakes up. My friend's baby was waking up only twice at night on the begin, then when she turned three months old she was waking up 3, 4 times at night. She wasn't ill or anything, she just changed her time when she wants to sleep :)
If your girl is over 4 months old she can already teething. Teething pain can keep her up. Or maybe you have a pet? Walking around pet can scare the baby. 
Did she had many colics before? Colics can last up to 12 months of life.
There can be a lot of reasons so if you're really nervous about it go to a doctor.

If you want to put your baby to sleep in 20 seconds you must get the "Instant Baby Sleep" MP3 sound track. Here is their official web-site: http://www.instantbabysleep.net

The sound track gently produces energy over the full human hearing spectrum with an embedded pulse that gently eases the brain to the Alpha state well known for drowsiness and sleep induction.
