Fighting the battle internally on whether or not to stop breastfeeding! ☹️ Ayvah's teeth are killer and she just rips at me and makes me bleed, or she's crying to be on me so that she can use me as a piece of jerky! How do you mommas do it.. breastfeeding while the baby is teething so furiously!?
I'm gonna have to try this for sure. I don't want to give up so soon ☹️
Next time she bites scream really loud let her know she’s hurting you. My son had a mouth full of teeth around 5 months and your nearly rip my nipples off I had to put on a show once scared him and he stopped biting
@littlemedranos I did once on accident just because it hurt and it scared her and she cried so sad! It broke my heart!
I pumped and bottle fed when mine would bite. I gave her a chance to feed on both sides and if she bit both boobs, I would pump and feed. She stopped with the biting once her teeth came through the gums.
@northwoodsmomma she got one tooth through the gums but now she's getting two more at the same time so she's miserable! I have her on the bottle right now but she's just chewing at it. She refuses bottles and pacifiers so it's going to be a long ride if I do decide to do so!
@ajowens1547 my son refused pacifiers and bottles and all teethers. I had good luck with frozen washclothes.
My baby just did this yesterday. I broke down in tears.
Just keep telling her "no, no biting sweetie " I know she's young but she'll start to get in the groove.
The moment you feel teeth, stick a finger in her mouth. And stop for a minute.
