10 month old spending half the night gnawing on me!

10 month old dd has been waking at around 3/4 in morning and then wanting to continuously munch on my breast. This has been going on for about 3 weeks now. She has never slept through but previously she has just woke, had feed then gone back to sleep - that I can deal with. Also previously if she has had a bad night I have been abe to settle her in the bed next to me and just go back to sleep while she feeds. Thing is now she is properly awake rather than having sleepy feeds. She is chewing and pulling on my nipples so no way I can sleep through that! I have tried taking access to breast away being as she is not feeding properly but then she gets cross and shouts. Dh has tried taking her but she doesn't want to know him at night time and gets really upset. Could be teething I thought, but no other signs during the day.
Someone tell me what to do please or at least reassure me this is a phase!

I have tried her with a few different types of dummy but no interest taken. Think I might try some teething gel tonight. I may end up with a numb nipple but might not be a bad thing if she is going to be chewing on me Hmm
