You can buy nipple covers for breastfeeding so baby doesn’t bite you, amazon sell them I think x

Haven’t found a complete solution but I would be super vigilant during feeds and as soon as I feel my son unlatch I remove my breast. He would unlatch and then bite down. If I didn’t catch it in time and he bites I remove my breast and give him a couple minutes then offer it again, try not to react I know it’s hard but I found if I reacted or said anything he would laugh and continue to do it. He has started doing it less

Ah thank you, will have to try doing that and maybe using the nipple shields to help recovery
