Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
because he'd sooo be kicked out for biting!
Last week he put his head on my shoulder and as I said out loud "what a sweet boy." he bit me so hard that he made me bleed. It throbbed for a good day and now is still black and blue.
Since then he's attemped to bite me several times and succeeded a few but not nearly as severe as last weeks bite!
I firmly tell him NO, but it seems to be a big game for him! What am I doing wrong??

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
Sadie doesnt do it much but I try not to say NO to her much.
What I do is when she hurts herself...like shuts her fingers in a drawer, or bumps her head, I say OUCH. Then, when she bites me (usually it is out of excitement) I say ouch and move her away.
I dont know if she gets it, but it doesnt happen much, and she doesnt laugh about it.

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
lol! aww poor marie 
i've had to say a few LOUD "no biting" to her for her to get it. for allison, if she cries, she "gets" it. now she nuzzles up and goes in for the kill, but i remind her "no biting" and she decides otherwise

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
My child was kicked out of 2 different daycares for biting. We constantly worked with him to teach him not to do it. He outgrew it by age 3.

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
I know your pain. I used to look like a $2 hooker with all the tiny bites all over my body.
I tried many things, but what began to work was ignoring.
Good luck! It's a tough thing to deal with!

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
Sometimes you have to be a little firmer than firm. Make sure he understands that he is hurting you. DD did this a couple of times with me, and I have to admit, because I was so shocked by it I yelled "no bitting, you hurt mommy." And she got upset. She never did it after that.

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
My DS is a biter too. He's bitten DD and made her cry. He's bitten me and it HURTS!
Every time he tries to do it now, I move him away and firmly tell him "no biting." If he does it I will yell "ow" loudly and then tell him again "no biting, it hurts mommy."
I think he is starting to get the idea because he doesn't do it as much anymore.

I have been told by BTDT moms to bite back... but I really have no clue since I have not gotten that far yet.

Thats the thing, I've made him cry when I yelled at him! A few minutes later, he's trying again!

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
Thanks for all the replies!! I've gotten very firm with him and I've even made him cry but it doesn't seem to make a difference! Today, he came at me to bite me all while shaking his head no-this kid kills me

Re: Thank God my kid doesn't go to daycare...
What always worked with Alex is I would say very sternly "NO BITING" and then I would put her down on the floor and walk away. Walking away and not playing/cuddling with her for a good 5 minutes was punishment enough for her to stop the behavior.
