Success after IF

BFing moms of biters

Can i just say how much the bitting sucks?

I feel like my nipples are about to be taken off. We have tried so much and he still bites. Today it happened and I just lost it. I had to put him down and walk away I was so mad. It didn't help that he sat there and laughed at me. I feel like a bad mom for getting so upset with him. I normally stay calm but today I just hit the edge. Of course I put him down and he signs for milk, and I am thinking ya right kid but nursed anyway. I just wish he would stop biting me!

  • yeah this sucks totally...

    we have a biter when 1) he is not hungry or 2) he is distracted -tv on loudly or someone talking to me or me talking.  3) or when he is in giggly mood

    it has happened less lately, but still i get this....ugh i feel like he will bite off my nipple and we only have 2 teeth.

    I pull my LO off and he laughs too.

  • Reed bit me once so hard that I bled.  Ouch!  I think it was because I had low supply once I got pregnant again.  I couldn't handle the pain so I stopped.  I was literally crying for an hour one night after he bit me. 

    I hope he stops biting you soon.  Sorry I don't have any advice.

  • Jude doesn't have teeth yet, but he is already biting me occasionally and it HURTS.  I can't imagine what it must feel like with teeth!  I'm scared..

  • I have no words of advice, but I wanted to say I'm sorry.

  • Ouch! I am not looking forward to this at all. I still remember the extreme pain from the first couple weeks of breastfeeding. I'm sorry that you have to deal with this and I hope it stops soon.
