I hope this makes sense. When I nurse him on the left side it feels like his biting or crazing his teeth on my nipple. He never seems to get a good latch on the left but when he nurses on the right I almost never have problems. He has the nipple along with most the areola in his mouth. Has anyone else ever had this problem and what did you do?

Is he teething? We had a similar problem last week when Sally was teething, but a soon as the tooth came in it went away.

I did the football hold on the left and made a BIG difference. He is working on his 4th tooth. It came through a little.

Glad it helped. We've got the same problem again, and more teeth about to come in. I'll have to try the football hold too.
