I think DS bit me twice.  I do recall that at one point he had to re-adjust his latch a bit because of the teeth but he figured that out quickly.  DD is also close to cutting her teeth as well.  She chomped me pretty good last night.  She'll have to stop biting the only one who can feed her or something's gonna change!

Oscar bit me once, Emma never did  - O had ALL his teeth by the time we weaned, E had all except 2 yr molars which came in at 3 yrs ;-)

Same here re having all teeth. As pps say it can be uncomfortable when they are cutting and the latch is awkward but no biggie.

I think he sounds like he's doing great too!  Same as others about the teeth.  It just takes some time for them to get used to the teeth being there so the latch may be uncomfortable.

Agree with the others with the teeth, all 3 of mine had all their teeth except 2 year molars when the weaned and I only got bitten with dd1 when I was having supply issues due to illness.

I dont know whats going on :'( I am having a horrible day (PMS and possible return of AF) which isnt helping!!

C is sick, he is always sick, by 9am this morn (he woke at 7) he was already through 3 changes of clothes!!

I am covered in sick all day every day :( I cant handle the constant sick and changes of clothes and washing!

It sounds so selfish because some people are going through a lot worse but this is really getting tiring! What can I do?

He has his jags today so I will get him weighed - he hasnt put on much recently but he hasnt lost weight so they arent worried!

Honey I hear you. T is always sick too. Every feed, right up to the next one. It's messy, it's frustrating and it's concerning BUT I have to tell myself if it doesn't hurt and he isn't loosing weight he is ok. :-*
T spills a lot more than Z ever did so its all new to me as well. Fwiw if it doesn't hurt him that's a good sign, it's likely he is feeding more (till full) because the spilling doesn't hurt YK?

Do you always have a burp cloth on you?

Have you started solids? - do you think it's helping if you have?

He doesn't usually spit up his solids so that's defo helping :) I'm doing a few days trial of neocate. Started at lunch time today and have just been pumping and storing milk. I kind of hope it does because I hate that he is sick so much but then that will just confirm that my milk is the problem and ill be even more upset!!

Weight was 16lbs 0.5oz - I need to check his book to see the gain, I can't remember but I think he has gained 0.5oz in 2 weeks?

Cuppa and bed for me, I'm so tired :(
