A. Hi Mom, To avoid this, giving your baby a teething toy to chew on before nursing or rubbing gums to relieve any discomfort, then keeping a close watch while she's on the breast. If you've got an older infant on your hands, you can encourage them not to bite by saying "No" and gently but firmly removing them from the breast.
