What can I do girls?? Matthew has decided that biting is a great way to get a reaction from Mummy during breastfeeding, he hasn`t as yet broken the skin but has left teeth marks and my it hurts, last night I made him cry as I yelled out in pain wheras today after biting he has a cheeky grin on his face.
I do normally pull him off and tell him it`s naughty but at 6 months I`m sure he`s not going to understand what I`m talking about.
oh yeah, im hearing you! Ive had this prob a few times and the lovely girls of BB gave me some great tips like Sammi-J's
I have found that he usually bites to relieve pressure so if hes doing it, I put him on the floor, give him some teething gel and a water ring thats been in the fridge and try to feed him after 5 minutes.
Trust me , its HURTS when they draw blood so I hope this technique can help you out!!!
Dee - they DEFINITLY understand no. I've only told Jenna NO once when she bit me, and she absolutely cracked it, I couldn't stop laughing as I had no idea she would understand it.
And shane is trying to stop her pulling the glass of his face. He has said no a couple of times, and sme thing - she definitly knows what no is, if not just from the tone in our voice.
Time to start I think - you dont want to be bitten many more times. It bloody hurts!! Other things to try are softly blocking the nose (makes them pull off) or give them a flick on the cheek.
