Baby L's necklace

I get many comments and questions about Baby L's necklace...so I thought I'd just post about it :)

It is made of Baltic amber, which is supposed to contain analgesic properties. They are very popular in certain mama-circles to relieve teething pain (and the accompanying behavior). I'm on the fence about it. The day it arrived, I put in on Baby L, and within minutes he morphed from this whining, miserable creature into a slumbering baby! I was hooked. However, since then...not so sure it does much.

I do have a friend who said all crystals (and amber) should be recharged periodically in order to maintain their healing/soothing/etc. properties. This is done by removing the stone/amber from the wearer and placing it in the sun for a few hours. I need to try this again with Baby L's necklace.

Whether or not it works has actually become a secondary consideration for me. As my cousin commented, it's kind of Baby L's trademark now - and I must admit, I find it irresistibly adorable LOL.

So there's the lowdown. If you'd like one for yourself, I ordered from this store (cognac color)..and many of my friends have as well. In fact, I have one I wear, and Baby L actually has an anklet too (gifts from a friend). It is by far the cheapest I found...
