My daughter is 9 months old, and nurses 5 or 6 times a day, and eats some solids at her own pace. This week she's breaking in her two top teeth, which means she's a bit of a pill, and nobody is getting any sleep.
Nursing feels different now, sorta like a little pinch and somewhat uncomfortable. She isn't biting or anything, she seems to be doing everything she normally does. Will this go away, like it did when I started nursing? Is there anything I can do to make it go away faster? Is this a latch issue?
I really want to make it the full first year (at least), and am totally committed, just wondering what is in store. Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences and wisdom.

When DS gets a new tooth, it always throws his latch off for a little bit, especially when he had his top two teeth come in at the same time. I could feel them scraping on me when he nursed and got really sore. Now I've just figured out when he gets a new tooth he needs to figure out how to 'work' with it.
