Default Ouch!!!

I think ds is starting to teethe (sp) and he's starting to use me as a teething ring! I watch him while he is nursing , but most of the time I still get gummed and OUCH it hurts! How long will this last? I startled him the first couple of times, but he still does it.

Maybe you could try sticking your pinky in his mouth to de-latch him and then re-latch. If you keep doing this everytime he tries to gum down on you then he'll get the point that he's not supposed to do this.
