A. this biting is due to teething use nipple shield. teething makes baby cranky due to pain swelling and gum irritation. Can give a silicon or wooden teether or pacifier for ease irritation. clean and massage  baby s gums by fingers. give vit d 3 vita must d 3 or KLM D 3 or D SOL 800 I U 0. 5 ml or 400 I U 1 ml daily till 1 year for strong bones and teeth

A. Hello Ma’am I think you are having some misconception it’s normally you’re saying that more you feed the more you produce is the same manner the more you express the more the body produces so it’s fine if you still don’t want to express you can start using a nipple shield as it is going to protect your nipples in the best manner and maybe your child is having an early teething which is why all these things are happening
