Teath and Breastfeeding?

[JJ Mum]

Devon has cut his first tooth today, he is 5 and a half months now. It's only just done it so there is no height on it yet, but just concerened what to expect.

Has anyone got any tips on how to handle teath when BF? How to discourage it, if it happens, What should I do if he bites me, has anyon ever been biten?

Thanks muchly , JJ

Oz bit me a couple of days ago and he's cut one of the his bottom teeth. Oh My GOD it hurt. Brought tears to my eyes. He'd clamped down too so I had to prize him off me. I'm terrified of it happening again

Forgot to say, no advice. Oz has always been a bit of a biter sometimes. Like when he doesn't want to feed anymore or if he's trying to do a poo lol. And if I tell him no he laughs and if I shout OW he either laughs or cries lol So sorry I can't help lol xxxx

My Oscar has 2 teeth but after the initial odd scratch. I can honestly say I wouldn't have known. Once they are used to them I think it's fine x
