Biting

I know this was a previous thread, but i am experiencing the same problems with Gracie. She will bite hands and arms it seems, but it doesn't seem aggressive, only playful. I read on a site to try crying really loud when they bite, and it works, she'll stop in her tracks and look at me like "i'm sorry!" but i feel ridiculous fake crying at the top of my lungs, i have neighbors! I'm really frustrated, i don't know how to teach her that this is unacceptable play! Gracie is about 7 months old, and has been doing this for a while, any suggestions??

Give this link a try. You can also do a search on the site for biting, and all our past discussions will come up.

Silas does the same thing. He will only bite when he's playing. And he bites HARD! He is 8 mo. right now, and I've noticed that as he has gotten older, the biting has decreased (along with the amount of time he runs around like a psycho). It seems he is getting cuddlier and cuddlier every week. Sometimes tho, he will get really riled up and bite too hard, and when I put him down he jumps up and grabs my arm. I put him in the bathroom for about 3 minutes with the light off. When I open the door he is very calm and wants to rub all over me as if to say "sorry mom!".
