Sounds like the bottle has become a prop. Have you tried changing your schedule to feed, light activiity and then sleep? That worked for my dd like a charm at about the same age (we had the same prop issue). That way your husband will be forced to put her to bed awake. We do feed, bath, story, bed at bedtime. It's also important that you do the same at nap time...try to feed her right when she gets up. HTH!
