biting with gums

My 6 month old keeps biting with her gums when on the breast, its really sore. SHe feeds ALOT during the night and i have now got a sore nipple with it.

Ive tried being stern, yelling,taking her straight off altho its usually at the end of a feed when she is coming off so this not too effective. I think because she hears me shouting at the older 2 (2 and 4) she is immune to it and presumes i'm yelling at them as i'm often met with a grin!

It needs to end, i fed the other 2 until they were a year but i won't be feeding her much longer if this doesn't stop, its agony and she doesn't even have teeth yet!
