He wont let go!

Breastfeeding has been going well but lately, my little man will not give me back my nipple! Me and my husband have to pry him off! He will be asleep for 10 minutes and I go to take him off, he clamps down and my nipple stretches out! Any advice? Lol.

Use your index finger to break the latch before you take him off. Otherwise, you're just hurting your booby!

Maybe u could do wat @rtmommy said then try to replace it with a paci

To add to what @RTMommy said, slide your finger into the side of his mouth inbetween it and your nipple. Then break the suction that way.
I usually just wait until he gets sooo boobie drunk he doesn't suck harder when you movehis head back because you know he's really asleep then. You can also lift up his arm and let it fall. If it freefalls he's out, if there is force, he is still not that asleep.
if he takes a paci try to break the suction and switch it. My son won't so my nipple is his paci. Haha
