My 6 month old is ebf. Now she have those two precious little teeth. She's biting a lot. Any idea how to make her stop biting? I'm all sore on my nipples.

Hey, I can understand what you must be going through. I guess, you can hold the nipple for her and when she tries to bite take it off and tell her that if she bites she will to get milk. Gesture her, she will eventually understand.

Biting is really part of the breastfeeding journey. Many moms suggest that you could press your baby towards your breast when she starts biting. That way, the baby will be immediately stop biting as she needs to grasp more air.

Hi, I think you can get a teether for her and show her by doing it yourself that this is for biting and not your nipples. She will surely understand it, unless she wants to bite you. ;p

I pressed her towards my breast when she bites. But then she'll bite harder before letting it go, lol.
