Nursing and Biting - Help!
DS has been biting me while nursing and I'm not sure what to do! I BF when we're together and pump for daycare. Recently, I traveled for business (3days) and ever since as soon as he latches on he bites and will bite during the feeding as well. I have tried using a stern voice and then stop nursing to try and teach him it's not okay but he still has been doing it. At this point I offer the breast and if he bites I will go and pump. I don't want to give up nursing and start exclusively pumping. Any advice?
ETA: DS is 8.5 months old and has teeth lol

ds did that a few times. i would just take him off and tell him no. he actually drew blood once. eventually he just got over it and got used to having teeth and nursing.

Woah! I cringe ever time he latches. I'll keep trying!

Re: Nursing and Biting - Help!
My DD has two bottom teeth and is starting to do this, and my stern no voice isn't helping.
If it gets worse I will start exclusively pumping as well!
