I wanted to know from Mom's who are exclusively breastfeeding their kids if it hurts when they have teeth?? I'm so scared to continue breastfeeding her when she has teeth. I don't want my poor nipples to be shredded. She already has a bottom tooth coming in.
The kids sure seem to do strange things when nursing when they get older lol. I hope everything goes well for you at the doctors too and that you have a quick recovery. @tristan-makes-5
@azmommy85, my son growels pushes his face into my boob while chomping down pulls off and on and sometimes shakes his head. He also won't let go sometimes also and its making me really sore also. i was thinking of trying to get him to use a bottle for when he gets teeth but also because i am going to have a MRI done on my back and may need surgery so he's going to have no choice but take one for daddy.
@becca2mommy, it gets easier once they get the hang of latching on correctly. Just the whole teething part sucks and then wondering what to do once they get teeth lol
Yeah my nipples have been very sore with her chomping and pulling off and latching back on and pulling off again. I'm like seriously kid how is that funny to stretch it and chomp down. I don't want her to do it with teeth. It makes me wonder if I should try pumping if I ever have the time or just switch to formula once her teeth start erupting from her gums @tristan-makes-5
im the same way he already bites down with no teeth and it hurts im afraid when he gets teeth@azmommy85
I don't know , but I can't even imagine! My little one tears my nipples already and she's only 1 month
I've tried bottle feeding and she screams and hates it. I've always just latched her on these past 6 months. No bottle or anything. So I'm guessing they use you as a teething toy. Dang! I'm wondering if maybe I can get her on a sippy cup and pump then. @jesjes
@azmommy85, thank you
