Bubs has three new teeth and last night bit me! Ouchy wa wa! I pulled him away from the nipple, said no firmly. He became upset so I comforted him. Then we BF and I reaffirmed the nice feeding. He is only 8mths old so don't know if he understands. What do you recommend to prevent further biting?
Hi,
You are doing all the right things. This will be a very shortlived stage and I am sure you will go on to breastfeed just fine
Thanks Barb!
We had same issue but DD was biting down and not letting go... I did the same tried to un- attach her and said NO she cried a bit and i put her down then comforted her and resumed the feed and she has only done it a few times and i've done the same thing... Hoping it wont happen to many more times... Damn it hurts
my DS has started to bite but it seems to be when he is teething. :crossfingers: they don't keep it up
njd - interesting point as bub is teething - has three top teeth all coming at once and it v v uncomfortable...might explain the biting...so far has only bit twice...but it doesn't tickle!!!
