My 9 month old has 7 teeth (4 bottom, 3 top). We had no issues with the bottom teeth but dd's latch has become so painful since the top teeth came in. I've tried altering her position but it's still sore. I'm also getting bitten, either an enthusiastic latch where she chomps down hard, or if she comes off slightly she clamps down to stay on. It doesn't seem intentional but I tell her no and take her off but nothing seems to be improving. It's starting to make me think about giving up which I don't want to do but I'm so sore I don't think I can carry on. Is there anything I can do to help this?
