Help help help! I love bf, but ds (8 mths this week) has just started biting me at every feed. No blood yet but it sure makes me weep! (not v good in public!) This has been going on for about a fortnight now. I've tried the firm "no", I've tried taking him off, i've tried anticipating the biting and taking him off but failed. I don't want to give up yet, i'd rather ds was bf for as long as poss. (2 yrs if poss?). Don't fancy expressing 3 times a day, any tips for stopping the biting without scaring ds???

I had a week or so of this not long ago with dd (now 18months) - it was definitely tooth related - new ones in and trying them out. I feed her to sleep so stopping feeding was not really an option. Just kept saying no and taking her off, then putting her back on again on other side. Hmmm ... so that's what you're doing anyway, well maybe it's tooth related but just taking a while and he's going to stop any minute now ! Good luck bobsmum
