Tips for 7mth old slapping meshel feeding

She batters me. Swinging her arms around everywhere. i think shed doing it just for fun. Any tips on how to get her to stop?

DD3 loved to do this too...along with snapping my bra. I would just hold her free hand while I fed her or if she resisted that then use that hand to gently move her arm (I wear glasses so a lot of the time she was reaching for my face to get at them). What about some type of nursing necklace for her to play with?

Good idea about the necklace. She gets quite aggressive sometimes lol x

I used to say "ow that hurts mummy." And move his hand away. If it continued I would take him right off the breast and remind him to be gentle and the offer the breast again.
