My Heart Breaks
Mason and Jeremiah are biting each other every time I turn around. They fight all day long and the last 2 days have been going after one another with open mouths that cause the worst welts and bruises you have ever seen. They are also pulling hair...should I just cut it off??? I don't know how to discipline biting or fighting, if it's even possible at this age. It breaks my heart that they hurt each other so bad and I don't know what to do.

Hi there,
Well, its probably no consolation to know that Mason and Jeremiah come from a long line of biters ... just ask grandma, and Kathy (although I don't think I left any scars to prove it). And, then Natalie was kicked out of daycare for biting when she was about the same age.
I think what you're doing is great, just continue to be consistent. I know you are the online baby advise buff, so you may have seen this site, which I thought has some great articles offering a few additional tips: http://babyparenting.about.com/od/discipline/a/stopbiting.html
I love you Chris ... you're a great mom, this is just another one of those rough seasons.
Hugs and kisses,
Mom
P.S. Mason found the camera!!
