Just on the sleeping thing, have you looked into Karitane (http://www.karitane.com.au/newframe.htm) or Tresillian (http://www.tresillian.net/)? Not only can they help with the sleep pattern (its a 1 week clinic stay, in extreme cases, and yours is extreme), but they can also help you to convince Dash to get off the boob. I did it with Michael (Tresillian) because of poor sleep (his was reflux related), and they use a fair bit of controlled crying technique. Karitane uses less controlled crying, and would be better suited to your parenting style.
