I need help/advise - transition to crib

Okay before i begin i want to say that i know that i am a bad mommy for letting my daughter sleep with us so please don't judge - I am trying to overcome my fault...
my daughter is 5 months old. For the first few months she would only sleep in her swing and carseat not her bassinette (which she still won't). out of convience for me we put her in between us in our king size bed way up top so we don't roll on her ofcourse...
anyway my problem is that when she wakes through out the night the only thing that will put her back to sleep is me BFing her. I now do it so quickly because i don't want my 2 1/2 year old to wake up either... During the day she really doesn't sleep either. I will BF her and she falls asleep on me and then when i try to move her she cries and wakes up and won't go to sleep. I try to lay her down when she is calm and she just cries more.. I NEED HELP - please any suggestions? oh and a side note - she won't take a pacifier or a bottle - I have a princess on my hands ;)
