What is a breastfeeding necklace?<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]A breastfeeding necklace is also known as a teething necklace and its sole purpose is to be something your baby can play, fiddle and twiddle with when their breastfeeding. Leaving you in peace, as you feed your child.<\/p>\n

It can be a beaded necklace or even chunky necklaces, but always safe jewellery that will grab most babies attention and keep them distracted as they feed. This is usually when the baby is around three months old and can start grabbing things (which is most likely going to be you!).[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n

How do they work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]Essentially, they are pieces of chunky nursing necklaces that the mother can wear around her neck. There are lots of versions of these breastfeeding necklaces, but it tends to be a silicone necklace, whether they’re safe silicone beads, chewable silicone, or even a cotton necklace. As long as they are baby-friendly, safe and keep busy hands at bay, they’ll hopefully be foolproof and will keep the mother and baby happy![\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n

Why can’t I use a normal necklace?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]There are a few reasons why a normal necklace shouldn’t be used as a breastfeeding necklace, according to Mama Jewels<\/a>:<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Your baby may try to put the necklace in their mouth, and as a standard necklace, it may not be non-toxic. Meaning that it could be harmful to your baby, and should be avoided. Jewellery in the UK is not really regulated, so you just need to be careful. Especially when wearing costume jewellery, this is a no go.<\/li>\n
  2. Babies like to grab anything in their eyesight, as mentioned before. And standard necklaces can be easily breakable, especially if they’re made with a breakaway clasp. You don’t want a lot of broken jewellery… So, a strong and sturdy breastfeeding necklace is the perfect combination for jewellery that is okay to wear around babies.<\/li>\n
  3. A breastfeeding necklace is good stimulation for your baby, as well as keeping them occupied long enough for a feed. A standard necklace may not achieve that same goal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n
