I used to really enjoy breastfeeding, but the last few days it's become a real chore. He bites/clamps hard, wriggles in my lap, pulls my hair, pinches me, pulls away still holding my nipple and is just generally difficult I'm starting to feel bad for cutting every feed short too.
What can I do about it though? I think he's too young to understand why I stop so surely there's no point trying to instill any manners or good behaviour. Anyone else experienced this?
