Biting
My little one has started biting me when he’s nursing. Any tips on how to get him to stop? He’ll bite down then tug at it 😩 and it hurts

@Rachel it hurts sooooooo much 😩
Same! It’s the teething. I just pull him in closer or put my finger in his gum to release the suction Someone told me to rub his gums before feeding
Same here. Ugh. He'll clamp down then pull back and turn his head. Ouch. I was told to flick him on the cheek when he bites but I think that backfired. He got scared, cried a lot and I think it made him bite more. That might be better for an older baby? Instead I hold my hand there so I can prevent him from twisting or release the suction quickly, or push him closer into me. That's worked well and he mostly doesn't do it.
