Biting and Chewing!

edited April 2012 in Breastfeeding
My 8mo old now has 8 teeth and three more coming in. When he would bite my nipple before during feeding, I would lightly flick his cheek and all was fine. Now he finds that hilarious, will stop to laugh and then chew harder! How have you ladies managed to stop the biting?

  • Lol @homebirthadvocate. When I do that, he laughs. He's a masochist.
  • Lol I'm feeding naliyah right now as I type this and she just bit me and I told her no with my serious face on and she just laughed lol idk what to do
  • I've been fortunate not to get bitten, but her 5 teeth have become bothersome during feedings. Ugh!

    A LC told me that when or if she bites to firmly say NO and do a 10 minute boob timeout. That eventually they'll get the picture.
