I wish i could say it gets easier Lee, but for me its gotten harder. FOr the past month or so DS has gone off food (is already very fussy) and only wants to bf - constantly. I think a lot of it is seeing if he can have it and comfort. He'll usually have 2 sucks and walk off. Its really frustrating and the constant re-attaching is painful - he too goes on with his teeth now.
When it gets too much - for instance we just had an hour and a half of him on and off constantly, i just have to say 'boobs are sore now, we need a break'..... Barb once said gentle discipline starts at the breast and i've kept that in mind ever since. He's not happy about it but he seems to understand - distraction method is my friend at the moment.
