If he's biting before a feed, try giving him your finger to bite first then latch him on. Don't leave it too long between feeds or he'll be more likely to bite.

I did give him my finger then slipped my nipple in but he still did it

As soon as he bites, tell him no, take him off and put him down for a few seconds. If you do this consistently, he should quickly learn that if he bites he doesn't get to nurse.

Lincoln got 2 teeth and when i say "no", it seems like he doesn;t get the message. What age will they understand? Hope not too long, i still want my nipples pain-free

I don't say no, I just carmly put her down and wait for her to want to feed more x

Just wanted to say I feel your pain. Claire was a biter as well, and it seriously hurt... not to mention she doesn't even have teeth!

Can't imagine how painful it is for you. I hope you find something that works for you soon. It really sucks tensing up and cringing before a feed. I've been there, and it's no fun at all.

I would take him off as soon as he bites and set him down.
