Baby is adverse to beeastfeeding

My baby has recently grown 2 bottom teeth and he was sick last weekend. Hence he was cranky and bit me really hard while DL. I think he was shocked by my reaction, and he now is quite adverse to DL. Whenever I position him for DL he would wail. I am feeling very emo because he don't even like me carrying him now. He is turning 7 months old and have not DL for 3 days so I am exclusive pumping. Is this the end of DL? I'm so sad.

May be. does baby drink pumped milk? any way one day every mum has to stop DL'. that is the truth. You have breastfeed him almost 6 months and and still pumping and giving. so do not be sad. Cuddle your baby. hold him and try to make bond with him

Hey anon, please do not feel sad. ideally 6 month exclusive breastfeeding is enough but if you want to continue comfort your baby, talk to your baby while giving him DL. May be it helps

a lot of skin to skin will help baby DL again. don't be disheartened and don't give up
