She is refusing to nurse. I have tried everything I nkow to get her to nurse but she is in pain and refusing. I gave her teething tablets and tylenol too but she is still associating the pain with my breast i htink. How can I "fix" this? And she didn't take a bottle at day care yesterday either...sigh...

:gloomy:

does she have an ear infection (related to the teething)?

Have you searched on here and in breastfeeding about strikes?

:dizzy: Thanks, Mamas! No ear infection according to the ped - my older dd got one every time she got a molar though so I know to keep an eye out for that! She is sooo miserable, poor thing. I have been giving her Tylenol and even that isn't helping so I think we will be trying Motrin if the pain is still bad. She is nursing now but still pulls away in pain...:( She has not taken a bottle at day care for three days - thankfully I am only gone three hours at a time...teething sucks...
