Well today Anais was driving me nuts! Everytime she would want to nurse she would latch on fine and then at the end she would not only bite my nipple but pull on it soooo hard!!! OMG!!!! I pulled her off and evey time I would tell her in a stern voice dont do that that hurts!! She would just l;ook at me and smile! I dont know what else to do today! I thought we were done with the bitting when her teeth started coming in but I guess I was worng!!!!

I had one that I screamed and cried (for the drama). that made him cry and not eat for 3 hours, but he never did it again.

I had onoe that I did the CRY thing and he LAUGHED and bit harder (at 4 months). and he'd do the bite and pull. I made sure he had toys that gave oral stimulation and when he bit me I;d set him back down in the crib or on the floor and we'd  try eating again 15 minutes later. that seemed to work. he eventually figured out when he bites i don;t feed him right away.

So sorry to hear that.  Matthew did that to me a couple of times right before his new teeth came through.  I sternly told him No and like gently flicked his chin. He cried for a few minutes and didn't want to latch on again but in no time he quickly went right back on and finished.  Sometimes they need some gentle reminders though.  Hope she grows out the biting rather quick for your sake.  It definitely hurts!

Feb. 12, 2008 at 4:22 PM I am sorry to hear. Maybe she is having an off day. Adrien only bites when he don't want anymore and I am trying to get him to nurse more.  He has started to bite me and ny hubby when he don' t get what he wants though.  Does Anais do that?
