I'm getting bitten myself a lot lately--no teeth in sight! I feel for you. This doesn't mean you have to wean. I would drink lots of water and continue to pump to keep up the supply. Keep putting him to the breast, when he goes to bite, have a finger ready to put between his gums to keep him from clamping down. Another thing I have found is that if I fight the urge to pull away and instead pull her into me, it stops her biting down, probably bc she needs to catch her breath as I have pushed her face into my chest! I read in The Breast Feeding Book by Martha and William Sears that it's natural for many babies to suddenly seem to go on strike and that this doesn not mean that you need to wean them or let them wean themselves when they do. I agree that when he's hungry, he'll eat. It seems like these things happen with breast feeding now and then and that when it seems like you just can't take it anymore and start to forget why you are breastfeeding, that's when it starts to fix itself and get better. Hang in there and continue to seek advice! Blessings
