6 month old pinching (what to do?)

Mrs.Holland

I know it's normal for babies to explore and grab/pinch/pull. My daughter has been doing it a lot lately (I know she doesn't intentionally hurt people obviously lol) but she will grab a hold of me and it will leave bruises, she grabs my hair and pulls it, and about 10 minutes ago my husband bent down to give her a kiss and she somehow grabbed ahold of his nose and gave him a bloody nose.

Like I said I know it's just a part of development and is normal, but is there anything I can do to address it? Is this just a phase? I try to leave my hair up when I hold her etc, but shes been really beating my boobs up when I breastfed her (scratching, pinching, hitting) and I avoid bring my face towards her to kiss her because she always grabs a hold of nose or my eye.

Any advice welcome.
