1yr old keeps nipping at his neck...

[hairyfairys]

has this happened to anyone else's lo's? he likes to nip at my neck too, i've checked his neck there's nothing there except more redness from the nipping... he's well in general and he tends to do it more when he is tired, is this just a thing like when my ds1 pulled his ears when tired?

anyway should i be worried?

thx

My friends DD used to do this as a baby as a sort of comfort thing ,even though she nipped an area of her neck red raw . She grew out of it and is now a perfectly normal 13 yr old

My DD2 used to nip me instead - or any female who held her when she was sleepy (not men, for some reason). My mum went home after looking after the DCs for a week, and couldn't work out at first what all the little bruises on her chest and boobs were! DD3 is much the same (though does prefer a nipple-twiddle, really [shudder]).

Makes DD1's twiddling with my hair seem quite appealing, in hindsight.....
