Biting when breastfeeding

This happened to me about two weeks ago and i noticed she started biting either at the start or at the end of a feed (when she’s bored or not massively hungry or finished) so i would take her off and say no in a nice way and then put her back on after few mins as you say if it’s at the start! After a while she stopped biting all together! I think trying to give as many teethers as possible during this time is beneficial as I think they bite when they are at the highest point of teething so those can provide some relief for them too :). Try not to react too strongly although I know it’s soooo hard cz it can really hurt! Also someone told me that when they bite, it’s good to bring them closer into your chest rather than pulling away so could try that too xx

Thank you so much this is exactly what he is doing. I will take your advice and give it a try. It was only once I reacted as caught me off guard as yes blooming hurts, little monkey. I am wondering if top teeth coming in as bottom teeth well and truly here now x

I react and say ow no! That hurt mummy! And put it away. Sometimes she smiles, sometimes it's startled her. But she hasn't done it in awhile! They need some reaction or they don't know that it's wrong
