Help hair pulling while feeding

Postby Sophiebeth23 » Fri Aug 15, 2014 5:07 pm

Dd has taken to pulling my hair while breast feeding. She is pulling huge amounts out. I've tried putting my hair up she still manages to pull it. I wear bf necklace and I've signed pain and mummy sad. Any ideas?

Have you tried taking her off the breast when she does it? I did it with DS1 when he started biting me.

Josh was a shocker for it - I could only wear my hair up tightly (so little fingers couldn't get in). If that isn't working I like Joy's idea too, that also worked for me for biting. If you dont' want to do that how about a scarf tied tightly around your head? In silk / satin so she can't get a grip :giggle: :bf:

Id hold her hand and say no firmly and seriously and keep saying it each time she does it. It works with ds1 but did take a while
