BFeeding and teeth

My daughter is exclusively breastfed. She now has 2 bottom teeth and the last couple days she has been killing my nipples! It feels like she's chomping down sometimes, other times it feels like she's just gnawing at them. I think she's teething again too. Any suggestions for helping sore nipples? When I'm at work I pump, but am home for winter break right now and want to feed on demand, so I want to stay away from pumping right now if possible.

    Have you use the nipple cream!? There's an organic version without lanolin too. It says it helps with cracked nipples! Good luck mama!!

    My LO bites sometimes with her two bottom teeth.  Before she nurses, I stick my finger in her mouth to see if she wants to nurse (if she sucks my finger) or if she wants to gnaw.  

    If she bites, I firmly say "no" and pull away.  I wait a little while and if she still wants to nurse, I'll let her try again.

    Best of luck!
