Clamping down on my nipples!

[Jenmk1]

Nearly 9wo DD has taken to clamping my nipple between her gums towards the end of a feed Its bloody painful and I have to stop myself crying out. It's not every feed, it happens more often in the evening when she's cluster feeding and tends to be a bit more fussy at the breast. She's being treated for thrush in her mouth at the moment but that looks to be clearing up well and doesn't seem to be bothering her.
Anyone else experienced this? Does it stop or should I be bracing myself for when she gets teeth?

Hi, we're moving this thread over to our Infant Feeding topic now.

I can't offer any advice. My 3mo is doing this at the.moment. It makes me yelp which makes him smile

It doesn't stop. My DD is 1, doesn't breastfeed anymore but has decided to practice pinching with my nips. Just thought you needed to know it won't stop after feeding.

Thanks
For someone who was really quite squeamish about anything/anyone touching my nipples before I was pregnant I'm amazed I've managed this far! I'll steel myself for future biting/pinching... Maybe some sort of chain-mail bra would help
