RE: ANY TIPS ON HOW TO MAKE THE BABY GO TO BED EARLIER??
ITA, plus the solids could be giving her tummy troubles. Try giving her solids for breakfast and skipping the dinner solids for a little while. Or stop solids for a couple of weeks and see if it gets better.
At that age, my DS1 was going to bed at 5:30-6pm.
ETA: When she wakes up at 7:30pm, keep the house quiet and dark, don't talk to her, etc. No lights either! She'll get the idea more quickly that it is time to sleep, not to wake up.
