Baby bit a hole in my nipple. Bleeding and so painful

She bites really hard every single feed. She has 6 teeth. She's 10 months. I'm really passionate about breastfeeding and don't want to give it up so that's not an option. Please can people give advice because I literally cry every feed and it's even painful when she not feeding but she's so attached to me right now and wants to feed a lot

Also if the teething is particularly distressing for baby you can try calpol, wait 20 mins for it to kick in then try feeding x

I echo what the above says about offering a teething toy. For healing, if you can, try and avoid feeding from that boob for a couple of days. I hand expressed to For comfort and it healed much quicker than putting anything on it.
