I second Naomi's tip: pull him into your breast. He will instinctively let go. I only had to do this a few times and they quit. Four babies and no habitual biters? Worked for me! Two of the four were nursed 21 and 23.5 mos, also.
This didn't make me LOL - this made me genuinely laugh out so loudly that I startled my pups! Sorry for your pain, but thank you SO MUCH for setting my morning back on the chuckling side of things!
the worst. and they don't even need teeth for it to hurt.i wish i could say i took the food away from them when it happens, but i don't. i just say no, shriek in pain, and then get back to business b/c really, a hungry baby is worse than a bit nipple. so back on they go, crossing my fingers they will listen...
Noted and corrected. ;)
ReplyDeleteAww such a sweetie! Glad you are raising you baby right though!!
ReplyDeletethat wee man has teeth already? But he was born just yesterday!!
ReplyDeleteTip: push baby toward you when he does that, not the instinctual pull away, I did that one too many times!

ReplyDeletehaha. that's when my mom decided we were done with the boob!
ReplyDeleteOuch! That hurt me in sympathy, just reading it. Maybe the closest thing to a guy who sees a particularly brutal kicked in the groin scene?
ReplyDeletehe has teeth! the lean in does work, perhaps because they feel like they are going to be smothered.
ReplyDeleteI'm thankful for this post... and the tip of pushing him forward. Because holy holy holy... does that hurt.
ReplyDeleteOuch!!! Been there and experienced that WAY too many times for a normal human being!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! It's not enough to stop him. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha. Oh my goodness.
ReplyDeleteOUCH!
ReplyDeleteoh, huck. silly little huck.
