Gah! I thought this was a 2 or 3 year old kid kind of problem, but nope, my sweet little 11-month old is a BITER!
At church on Sunday she was playing on the floor with a 7 month old... she crawled up to him and kissed him on the forehead. I turned to have the "isn't she so sweet" talk with the boy's mom, and he starts screaming... yeah. She bit him, HARD, on the forehead--hard enough to leave red lines that lasted the duration of church!
So yesterday she crawls up to DH, climbs up on him and leans into his shoulder, like it's huggy time, and bites him hard... um, he still has the mark THIS MORNING!
I am beside myself. We are doing the immoblization thing to teach her not to bite, but I don't know if that is going to work with this. Any suggestions. She seems too young to really understand.
