A BF and teething necklace, does it exist?

Mira06

Hi ladies.  I was just wondering if anyone has seen something like this.  I am looking for nursing necklace that is also safe for LO to put in his mouth.  I would like the necklace to be be beaded, not just the donut commonly seen with teething necklaces.

Has anyone seen anything like this?  Thanks!

I would assume that all the nursing necklaces are safe for LO to put in their mouth.  I didn't have one however, so I'm not positive.  If you look for one made of unfinished wooden beads, that should be safe.  Check Etsy maybe?

As far as teething necklaces, those are actually made of amber beads that release (into the skin) a natural analgesic called succinic acid.  They are NOT meant to be put in the mouth.  Just want to clear that up, in case you didn't know.  Hope you can find what you are looking for.

Oh sorry I should have been more clear.   I didn't mean an amber teething necklace, but more of something like this.  Basically what I am looking for is a nursing necklace that is safe for baby to put in his mouth.  I happened to notice on a couple sites selling "nursing necklaces" they said not to allow baby to put the necklace in his mouth.  And that just seemed ridiculous.  Let baby play with the necklace, but not put it in his mouth?!

But thanks for the Etsy idea!  That is  a good idea to look there.

This! This is what you are looking for! I have the black Hudson necklace and I love it. I get compliments on it all the time, then I tell people exactly what it is and they are even more amazed. It's made out of the same stuff as pacifiers, so the baby can chew on it and it's also very long so it's great for wearing while nursing, which is my favorite purpose for it right now as LO likes to pinch me when she's nursing. Also, it's designed so that LO can pull on it very hard and it won't break. It's a little pricey though. I had a $10 certificate and 10% off when I got mine so it was only like $20 for me, which isn't bad. Though I think I'd spend the money on a new one.

Oh, also, I got mine at Sweetbottomsbaby.com, it's free shipping and I think you can still use the code PARENTING for 10% off your first purchase.

I got mine at mommynecklaces.com and my DD loves to play with it while nursing and chew on it any other time.  Definetely check them out.  There are tons of choices.
