Nursing Necklace?

C has been pulling her hair out and reaching for my face while nursing.  I stumbled across the idea of a nursing necklace to distract her.  Has anyone used one? 

Re: Nursing Necklace?

  • Why not give her a regular toy to hold while nursing?  I looked at those but felt like it would be confusing to allow Mj to pull on one necklace and then not another.

  • True.  She is a swinger so I would have to be careful with what toy I give her.  I don't wear necklaces so I am not worried about that.  It just kills me to see her pull her hair out even though it doesn't seem to hurt her. 
  • I never heard of nursing necklaces but I have heard of  amber teething necklaces...I dont know if it would work or if she would even notice she had it on but its worth googling?

  • What about something like a taggie blanket. They are fairly small and they can rub on all different texture ribbons with their fingers. I think that is what I used for DS.

  • I had won one from a blog and used it for a little while.  It really didn't help because she wanted to teethe on it instead of nursing.  It would work for a few minutes, then she would continue to unlatch to bite the necklace.  I won a "teething bling"..

    I also find that she pulls on my necklace regardless, that really did not have to be taught to her, just something she always did.

     It may work for you, GL! smartmomjewelry.com
