Layla has gotten her two bottom teeth in the past week and is biting the devil out of me. It's really making me sad. She's not even six months yet. I bf'ed the older two for 2 and 3 years so I really don't want to consider weaning, but I cannot go on like this. I've offered her a lot of things to teeth on. <y older kids bit every once in a while, but this is consistent at every feeding.

I wish I had some advice but I don't. I can definitely empathize. I have been going through this over and over with Quinten since birth. We get past it and then it starts up again--he is 13 months. I feel your pain and hope that you can work through it and avoid it happening again. I hope someone has some advice to help you out.

jackson bites me when he wants solid food (although he doesn't usually bite my nipple..just my arm or leg or whatever is available)
