OUCH! breastfeeding help

When I feed him he sucks normally then after a little while he will suck and turn his head and pull my nipple. Its like hes getting bored or something.

All my babies did that. It is supposed to help with more let down.

DS used to do that, not so much anymore now he's 13 weeks, but ouchies! I have no idea why, maybe they're just repositioning and don't wanna let go? I have no idea really but he seems to be doing it less and less.

He is a month old today and just started doing it this last week. I dont know but it hurts! He won't suck as much when is does it, just suck and pull.

Yea sounds like what he used to do, I dunno maybe he's just comfort sucking, I just used to pop my finger in his mouth to break the seal then get him to latch on again, he soon stopped.

I've noticed that it seems like he needs it to go to sleep and when he is crying and won't stop it seems to be the only thing that helps, so comfort sucking may be it.
