Yeah, I do that too, say 'gentle' and take her hand and show her what I mean.

In the last couple of weeks she's started having some little tantrums (which btw I was not ready for! lol, expected that that came much later! I suppose they'll just get worse) about things like if I take something off her that she's not supposed to have. So she'll scream and cry and yell at me. But this is just a frustrated "I really wanted to have that, Mum" cry and more like she's just yelling at me for being sooo mean to her, lol. There is no tears.

But with the pinching thing she gives me the lip and tears well up in her eyes and it's more like 'you've really hurt my feelings now mum!' and she cuddles up to me. And that's why it makes me feel bad. The other ones where she's just yelling at me and frustrated I just think 'Oh well, you'll have to learn that there's things you can't do/have'. Whereas this makes me feel bad like I've upset her and I don't know if it's ok!

She does the pinching when feeding too and I don't want to upset her then bc she gets too upset and won't feed!

She just did it again and I think she especially doesn't like it when I say 'Ouch!', no idea why?

Thanks for all the advice guys!
