Hi all, What is best treatment for a bite on the nipple/areola? The bite is a small tooth mark on a little red bump (looks benign but has been exquisitely painful, altho much improved now with "tincture of time"). My toddler lately has been biting when she falls asleep at breast. Often I cannot break the suction. Tonite I had to hold her nose so she would let go and she was asleep and didn't even wake! For future possibility of this happening again, what suggestions to prevent this? Thanks, Laurie Wheeler, rnc, mn, ibclc Oh the trials and tribulations of motherhood! But the joys far outweigh these.
