Well, not exactly pinching. More like kneading or massaging.

DD is 6 months old and has to have two big handfuls of breast while she is feeding. Sometimes it really hurts. I am covered in red marks.

DS is 14 months. Cuddle time now consists of him pulling up my t-shirt & playing witgh my nipples with a big grin on his face

I only breast fed him for 8 weeks cos I had health problems so I don't know where his "jubbly" obession is coming from

katie- no suggestions here. Guess i'm gonna have to grin and bear it. Unless anyone knows where I can buy a fake squishy boob for dd .

iklboo- Is'nt it a bit early for your ds to have a nipple fetish ?

That's what I was thinking. If he sees me without my top on his does a big grin, says "eeeeee" and makes a bee-line for my norks

(like father like son??)
