I have that book, maybe I need to pull it out and brush up on some no biting tactics. The "Mom screams in pain and cusses like a sailor" method isn't working. I had to smack her to get her to let go the other day. This morning she chomped on me so hard I thought my nipple was going to be missing, luckily it is still there. I am scared to nurse her now, I hate it when she bites me. She only barely has 2 teeth thru the skin. Can't wait until she has her top teeth too. I have resorted to pumping and feeding her a bottle a few times when she nips at me, probably not the best way get her to stop since the bottle doesn't care if she chomps on it.

When she bites, pull her in close. When she figures out that she can't breath through her nose, she'll let go with her teeth. Cara was a prolific biter [crossing my fingers that Ollie doesn't start that] and after about three times of pulling her into my boob, she stopped. :-D I stand by the “suffocation method” I read about in my Womanly Art of Breastfeeding book.

I have to wait until Ashlyn is asleep then push her over a bit so I can go back to sleep on my stomach. I usually end up sleeping on my side because I can only stay awake long enough to get the boob to her mouth. I find however that is much more comfortable with a pillow between my legs. Remember one day he won't nurse at all and you will miss it! Oh and if you figure out how to make your boobs resistant to biting let me know, Ashlyn is a little Alligator sometimes.

My youngest kept very much the same schedule as a baby and it became exhausting. We ended up doing a Ferber kind of thing with him. It sucked, but it only took 3 nights, with each night sucking less than the one before it. Whatever you decide to do, good luck. I hope you're catching some tummy z's soon! .-= Earth Muffin´s last blog ..<a href="http://earthmuffininillinois.blogspot.com/2009/11/conversation-between-big-m-and-his-dad.html" rel="nofollow">A conversation between Big M. and his dad</a> =-.
