Biting!!

My son keeps biting me! Every nursing session today. I pull him off, yell no, usually in pain, and end the nursing session. He smiles at me when I yell. It's starting to feel personal.

This is the age that little ones are learning cause and effect. He is smiling because he gets an "effect". My first was a biter for a little bit, not just nursing either. I would be snuggling him on my shoulder and he would sink his brand new teeth right into the soft flesh at the base of my neck. I would firmly yell "no!", lay him gently on the floor, and walk away.
