Pinching--how do we stop our 12-month old?
Hi Mamas,
Our beautiful 12-month-old has begun pinching. She pinches my breasts when nursing (I'm going to get busy beads to keep her hands on something besides me.) but that isn't as bad as when she pinches other people.
She pinches my mom, sister, anyone who is holding her. It REALLY hurts. Is there anyway to guide her to not pinch? My mom asked if we should slap her hands, I said of course, no. I usually take Veronica's hands, smooth them with my own hands and say, "Nice touches." I feel I'm on the right track, but what have other momma's done?
