Anyone get baby to sleep whilst sleeping in your room?

DD is nearly 10 months and spends the beginning of the evening her cot next to our bed. Then at first waking - usually when we come to bed at 10 or 11 and she hears/senses us - she comes into bed and breastfeeds all night. (every one or two hours)
We only have two bedrooms and our 3 year old - who usually wakes once a night - is in the other bedroom.
Is it possible to do anything to get her to sleep through?
Thanks - if you have a success story I would love to hear how you did it!
I am a bit of an attachment parenting type but am also prepared to ignore crying whilst in the room - but would that even work while we are lying in the same room?

Have you looked at the no cry sleep solution? The author was a co-sleeper with a frequently waking breast feeder at 12 months and she reckons she got him sleeping 10 hours solid eventually. None of it's exactly quick fix though.

Thanks - yes I have looked and done the pantly pull off - so she can actually fall asleep without the breast if I insist, although then she stays awake longer. And I have never been able to stay awake at night to do this every time she wakes.
Think I am looking for a quicker fix!
