Biting

DD has started biting me. I think it's when she gets overtired or angry. DH thinks she does it to him when she's playing. She'll come over to me and just bite my leg really hard. This has been going on for about a week. So far, she hasn't tried to chomp on anyone else but I really want to put an end to this behavior. (She's also getting some molars right now so I'm wondering if this has anything to do with it.)

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

    LOL DD bit me yesterday bc I was carrying her to the car and she did not want to leave but was misbehaving. I just didn't know what to do but I am sure she was testing to see if I'd let her go. I think. When she does it again, I'll tell her nicely no biting, then progress from there. I am sure they address at her DC too.

    Do you say anything to her? I say bad but then DD smiles...so I know that's not getting the msg across.

    DD also pinches while she's falling asleep. I've been moving her away, getting down to her level and saying "No! We don't bite. It hurts." She is not fazed.

    I tap her on the lips and tell her no immediately when she bites. It didn't seem to be getting through any other way. She has bitten me on multiple occasions. The most consistent occurs when i'm washing dishes after dinner and she wants my attention. She comes up buries her head in the outside of my thigh and digs those little teeth in. It hurts so much you about jump out of your skin. I know the cue now so I have been redirecting and telling her we do not bite. It's starting to happen less often.
