Anybody have any ideas of how to gently encourage baby not to bite during feeds?

When they bite, don't make a big reaction. Unlatch them, then try again after about 5 minutes. If they bite again, end the session and try later. Also, make sure you're getting them to get a deep latch. With my first, if I didn't get a deep enough latch, he would bite me.

Also following since my little is almost 5 months!

Going through this too 🥴 but try nipple covers too

This is why I stopped nursing my first child 😅 I'm preparing for babygirl to get teeth and afraid of the shark bites lol I want to nurse for at least a ear this time. So thank you for this post and advice mommas
