<p>Baby boy is 11 months old. He finally has his first tooth, and it is hurting him I guess. He needs a nap. I useually nurse him to sleep. Right now he will bite me if I try to nurse him. How long will this last? Advice needed!</p>

<p>I'm far from an expert, but when my DD got her first teeth, she did this for only a day or two. I'd pull her off and give her something that was okay to bite (teething toy, wet cloth, etc). So far, she hasn't done it any more. Also, i had been giving her a sippy cup, but she was just chewing the spout/nipple, so I took the spout off.  I don't know if it helped, but I figured i didn't want to encourage her to chew on nipple-like things!</p>
