om...
well the Moo has 2 little white teeth poking through his bottom gum,
they are not all out yet but its imminent!

I thought it would be wise to ask for tips in case he turns out to be
a biter. He's been doing this pull off thing for the last week or so
and he gets 3 chances to settle before the boob gets put away as it
hurts. Should I use the same strategy for biting? I'm not sure its
working for the pulling off. What I mean by pulling off is when they
have a firm grip on th nipple but wrench their heads away fast - ouch.

I was advised here to put Kam down when he bit me, and it seemed to work.
I say a gentle no, then put him on the floor, which upsets him.
I also realise now he has 4 teeth, that he only bites when he is teething,
the rest of the time he is fine.
