My baby is 9month old now. She needs to breastfeed to sleep every night. Am I creating a bad habit by allowing baby to breastfeed to sleep? She still will wake up 3-4times in the mid night to suck for comfort. Refuse hugging to sleep. What should I do?

Seems like she has associated sleep with feeding. You can try to teach her to self soothe without the breast. Feed her earlier before her bedtime. Once she is drowsy, pat her or offer her an alternative maybe a pacifier if you like.
