Any tricks for preventing my baby to bite my nipple? 😭😭😭

Question

I. Need. Help.
I'm bleeding from my nipple right now, I was breastfeeding my son and he just bited my nipple and tried to get away with it. It hurt as fuck. But I don't want to stop breastfeeding... any mommies who know how to prevent from happening again?

Answer

I know this sounds kind of mean, but I was told that if baby bites you while nursing, to yell kind of loud and make them realize that it hurts you and that they can't do that. It'll probably scare him but atleast he'll learn to stop doing it.. 🙀

Answer

My baby got her first tooth at 3 months I noticed if i watched her i  could see when she was going to bite so id stick my pinky in and u latch then after a couple times  I'd stop  unlatching her but still put the pinky neer her mouth and she stoped before biteing now she has 3 teeth at 6 months and have been bite free for a month

Answer

I've heard you can unlatch him immediately when he stops sucking/drinking before he has a chance to bite. I've also heard of pushing the breast into their face so it covers their nose and they are forced to let go?! I've never done that to be clear!! And I'm not necessarily recommending it. It's just the only thing I've ever heard about it ..

Answer

I would like to know some tips too xx

Answer

The only thing I have heard that works is to unlatch say no and put your baby on the ground. Then walk away. I've heard they learn quickly. I'm not sure. We haven't tried it yet. I keep hoping he will stop on his own. 🤞🏻

Answer

I've heard to flick them on the cheek and say no. Yes they may cry because you scared them (because you're not doing it hard enough to hurt them), but they quickly learn not to keep doing it.
