Ds is 8months and ebf. We have both found it easy other than the feeding every hour or two overnight. But recently he has started raking his razor sharp nails across my face neck and chest during daytime feeds. If I try to hold his arm he screams. He also braces his arm against my chest and pushes against me which results in him tugging at my nipple, painful. He brings his top leg up and not so much kicks as pushes and grinds his foot against my arm, my arms are bruised. If I try to move my arm away he rolls onto his back and tugs again. He feeds to sleep at both map times and sometimes, as now, it's a fucking nightmare tbh. We Co sleep and feed fine in the night. He's so little and I know he's not doing it to hurt or annoy me but I'm starting to get really bloody annoyed with it. Is there anything I can do to stop it?
