8-month old DS has always had phases of biting me right from the start. I want to get to a year but am getting desperate. Top teeth are about halfway through now and we'd just about got used to them, but now he has a cold and nips me before or during most feeds atm. I dread each feed and end up putting them off and giving him food instead, which obviously isn't ideal.
Every website that gives advice on biting tells you what to do WHEN he bites, but that isn't much good, I want to know how to prevent it happening in the first place! I usually yelp involuntarily, take him straight off (obviously!), say "No biting!", put him on the floor and walk away. But he just doesn't seem to be getting the idea. Any advice would be most welcome!
My other two DC were similar but not as bad - I made it to a year with both of them, but it would be really galling to have to go out and buy bottles and formula now, for the sake of another four months!
