My toddler likes to pretend to kiss me and instead bites my cheeks. When I yelp she laughs. It's actually not funny. And when I shout at her she laughs more. This has happened many times. She knows it hurts me. She does not do this to anyone else. Does my baby hate me, so chooses to hurt me? Or am I reading too much into this? Also can someone tell me how to make her stop.

Firstly, you gave her a reaction be it yelp or shout. Toddler loves reaction both good and bad. The next time she does it, be firm and say no.

Say it's painful, just like if you bite her fav soft toy teddy bear (or pillow) and teddy feels painful, perhaps they could relate better?

my baby find it funny too..when i shout in pain he thought i was playing with him and he chose to bite again.my nipples..ouch

My son speaks less than 200 words, doesn't say his name but responds to it.He is bilingual , I'm a little worried.

It's normal behaviour. And the more u resist, the more they will do it! They loves to see our reactions

my 2 year old baby loves to cuddle and kiss me every time. He also said I love you after he kissed me.

Dont read too much into this. They are kids and innocent. Probably think that u are playing with them

You child doesn’t know it yet, but it’s still good to let her know that that’s not acceptable.

it is more like a "play" to her and she loves that she is getting your attention when you react :)
