Baby biting boobs

Any tips on how to stop my 7 month old DS biting me during feeding a friend suggested I pinch his nose but that doesn't sound right to me

Nipple shield?

I've heard you can either push them into the breast to get them to delatch (and thus realise that biting leads to a temporary loss of milk) or say 'no' and delatch them yourself by inserting a finger into the side of their mouth.

However my baby doesn't have teeth yet so I have not tried these methods.

I shouted ouch when mine did and pulled her off she didn't do it again. Be consistent baby will get the message x
