Daya has gotten her first tooth and it hurts! She has a mean bite. She is given formula while im in school and breastfeed for the rest of day. she hasn't made me bleed but I think another tooth might come out and maybe thats wats making her bite me so much. I feel like not breastfeeding her cuz im now literally scared everytime she get hungry. I dont lile being scared I dont like getting bit but I dont wana feel like im not giving her my best if I stop.

  • I'm not sure what the solution is, sorry boo!!
    Here's a bump for you, hope someone can help!!
  • Have you tried stopping feeding her and saying no? She won't like you stopping so hopefully she would get used to not doing it

    Naliyah bit me the other day and I swear my nipple was hurting forever lol...I've been thinking if starting to just pump and give it in a bottle but then I don't want to have to wean her off the bottle...just give her a stern no and put the boobie away and give her a teething toy for a little kind of like a boobie timeout
  • Put a dab a vanilla extract before boob time.

    I use that for Malia's teething when it does bother her (not much). I don't know why I haven't thought of this advice for myself yet, lol. She has bitten me twice. Now I don't nurse her to bed anymore, since that's when she is the most restless. I miss it, but enjoy the break. Daddy does bedtime now.

    I just kept rambling, sorry. Lol
