Howell pinches me the entire time he nurses. I get that he soothes himself running his pincer fingers together but I have little welts all over my arm. I've offered him a lovey but nothing is better than sadism apparently. Anyone experience this and successfully stop it? I don't think weaning would help because he does it when we snuggle too.

Then and now. How did my boy get so big?
Re: Pinching
Haha. Mine look like hickies because he doesn't use his nails. Mittens are genius.
My kid pinches the little roll of fat near my armpit. Lovely of him to continually point out my least favorite part of my body. And it hurts! He only stops if he has something better to do, like pull my hair or yank my earrings.
This is my child. Always pinching my arm fat hurts like he!!
