Help me!

Ok- So I've figured out that every time DD gets new teeth her latch is TERRIBLE! It's worse than when she was a new born. I try to correct it and nothing helps. And it hurts o nthe inside. So earlier today I was pumping on the side I didn't feed from and there was A LOT of bright red blood. I probably pumped about an oz before the blood died down. 1.5 oz before the blood was gone. I'm afraid to feed her/pump again. I have to because I'm sore and it's my usual pump time but MAN! This is getting old! I know she's just teething but I really don't know what else to do!

Mine just got a top tooth two weeks ago and it hurts soooooo bad to nurse on my right side as her tooth digs in!!! Sorry no advice but I feel your pain!

It's okay to continue breastfeeding with blood present in the breastmilk. It won't hurt her.

I know it wont hurt. I'm so sore from these teeth. I am pumping now to giv e my breasts a break. Haven't had her latch since yesterday and I feel 1000x better. Probably let her latch later today and see how it goes.
