If she is waking up wanting to suck but not feed, have you considered a dummy for her? I know this is controversial, but that's what I found with my baby as well and it was very frustrating. But once she had a dummy, she was much better. Especially if you're finding that her fingers and thumbs are making their way to her mouth.
Rather get her an orthodontic dummy which is similar in shape to the nipple when sucked, so should not interfere with breastfeeding.
