Help with a biting baby

[MagpieMama]

My DS is almost 8 months, two bottom teeth came in last month and two top teeth have just come through. For the last few days he's started biting during feeds. I've tried saying 'no' and he just smiles at me. I've tried putting him down on the floor to show him that biting means no milk but he keeps doing it.

I get nervous at each feed now as I'm just waiting for the bite. We've been through so much to breastfeed (tongue tie, latch problems, vasospasms that meant the first 4 and a half months were constant pain and having to going onto medication that we thought meant I had to
stop feeding but I was able to continue in the end).

I'm determined to keep going but it's been a hard few days. Anyone have any tips or am I just going to have to play Russian roulette with my boobs?

How long are you leaving him on the floor?
This worked for me when bf dd. I put her on the floor and left the room. Maybe try leaving him for longer?
Sorry not much help but didn't want to read and run

For mine, unlatch every time a bite happens, say 'no, no biting', wait briefly then relatch. Repeat every time you feel a nibble. DS stopped quite quickly.

I had this two nights ago! I put her on the floor and left the room. She screamed I went straight back in and carried in feeding her. She's not done it since (fingers crossed) I feel for you, it blinkin' kills!

I admire all the people who say "no" and put the baby on the floor. This has only happened to me a couple of times, but the first time I jsut screamed so loud I made the baby cry .

From what I've read on here though, it tends to be quite a short phase.

Thanks everyone!
I only manage to put him down for a short time as he gets very upset and I can't bare to leave him so I pick him up for a cuddle but wait a bit before I let him latch on again.
I'll keep trying and hope he grows out of it soon
