Bite her back, so that she know's what it feel's like to be bitten, then she will stop. OR a firm NO! should be surfice.

I have been going through this with my 23 month old for the last 6 weeks or so...it's a stage they go through I guess. My son bites his big brother out of frustration I think (they are only 17 months apart) as it's really the only way he can keep him down! Teething is also a big factor as my boy still only has 12 teeth and his eye teeth have been teasing him for a few months now & still don't look any closer to coming through. All I can suggest is to keep saying "no" sternly and it will pass...there really isn't much else you can do besides all the teething remedies - like a cold wet face washer to chew on (this was a favourite reliever for both my boys), etc. Good luck!

Children go through phases of this.  They bite out of frustration or just to get attention.

The best solution is to actually ignore the behaiour, which can be hard to do, but is the most effective solution.

Itchy gums is what I call it, it must feel painful for them and painful for you. Try a cold or frozen teething ring (the ones with the liquid inside). thats what I did -  good luck

My son we just got outta biting me, we used a similar technique to timeout, but instead I would sit him in the middle of the loungeroom and let him scream he got no attention from me but also he couldn't hurt himself without me knowing about it, if he came up for a hug I would say no you hurt mummy and mummy doesn't like it when you hurt her. After about 2 months he stopped biting me and he will still bite his toys but I let him as he is teething.

I hope this helps a bit.

I had a little boy at my childcare that use to bite all the time, his language development was rather behind also. it was discovered that he had problems with his ears and needed tubes.

also when he would bite we would move him away from the child he had bitten but still in sight of us and would give the other child a big cuddle and say "thats not nice you hurt when you bite""

if it is a teething thing give him a teething ring every time he bites you and say Ï would like you to bite this and not Mummy"" see if that works

Good luck

Both of my boys went through a biting stage around 18 months.  They either bit me or the lounge.  I am afraid I took the hard line and smacked them on the hand and gave them toys to bite instead.  They were so shocked at getting a smack that they didn't do it too often after that. I suppose it is about letting them know that it is unacceptable and that it  hurts you.  I have heard that crying when they bite can also shock them into not doing it.

Probably not much help.  He will grow out of it. But I hope you work it out before then.
