How to get my 9 month old to drop his dream feed and sleep through the night


I am desperately seeking some advice re my 9 month old baby boy, who how ever hard we try is a terrible sleeper!!

He has slept through the night on only a handful of times and as I have just returned to work am very keen for this to happen.

I have tried to get him into a day nap routine from when he was very young.. unfortunately he has resistant this as this is a continual struggle...

Currently if we dream feed him at 10.30 with 4 oz of milk he will sleep through mostly till just before 6am.. we have tried repeatedly to stop this feed as am aware that at his age and with him eating 3 full meals he doesnt need it.. however we stopped it this week and as per other weeks when we have tried... Monday 1am wake up (given 3 oz in 4oz of water.. he returned to sleep after 40 min till 7am), tues am 4am (same happened took 40 min to return to sleep after needing a nappy change for a poo), wed am 5am did not return to sleep.. last night 4.30 did not return to sleep.

We have tried not feeding him at night and giving him only water but he screams the place out till he has milk (only 4 oz) then he returns to sleep (never sleeps on the bottle goes to his cot awake and cries for 15 minutes or so then falls asleep)

During the day I have tried various sleep routines for him.. over Christmas hols we managed to get him on a good sleep pattern of sleeping at 9.30 for 15 minutes then 2 hrs at lunch 12.30-2.30 however this hasn't lasted, mainly due to my 3 year old daughter going to nursery school which starts at 9am.. baby Aron therefore has to go with her daily in the car at 8.30 to get to the school.. he usually goes off to sleep around 8.45 in the car on the way to school.. I have tried waking him when we get to the school so he can then cat nap later.. but he wont then fall back asleep (sometimes he does at 10am).. this means he falls again to sleep on the school run to pick her up at 11.40ish (she finishes at 12pm) when he wakes up 30/45 minutes later on transfer back to the
