What would you all say the old grab and twist compares to in terms of pain? Am going through this stage for the second time and forgotten how god awful it is!

Sometimes the grab and twist (which hasn’t stopped for me and has been about two months) brings tears to my eyes. I’d compare it to needles/injections sometimes xx

I've just had a full on chomp down while reading this from my 8 toothed 14 month old as he drifted off 😱😫😵 I know it's accidental, but son of a gun!!! Needles is a good description. Electric shock like sometimes too when it's a brief nip.

If I gasp, completely involuntarily, sometimes HE has the cheek to get upset 😂 xx

My little twiddles which is actually relaxing for me too I was actually surprised as I hated my oh playing with my nipples it never turned me on.

As for the biting (I’m quite lucky he doesn’t do it often only when he is teething) it feels like pins and needles, but makes ones that make you want to cry 😂😩
