Here is the run-down...
Peyton is seven months old, so you know what that means - teeth!!!
There is nothing more pitiful than the face of a teething infant. It breaks my heart when I look at her. I mean, how would you feel if sharp bones were trying to poke through your skin. Poor baby.
When it comes to ailments - we have tried them all. Seriously. We have done the teething tablets, the frozen chewies, vibrating toys, and quite frankly, we were exhausted. Until now...
We have found our ticket. If you notice, Peyton is sporting a beautiful amber teething necklace. Contrary to popular belief, it is more than just a fashion statement.
Here is the low down on these miracle accessories:
Amber, a fossilized resin, helps calm babies and teething toddlers. When amber is worn on the skin, the skin's warmth release minuscule amounts of healing oils from the amber which are then absorbed via the skin into the bloodstream. Amber's has anti-inflammatory and therapeutic properties.
Blah, Blah, Blah...all I know, is they work. No, its not a cure-all, and she still is groggy and feverish, but she is able to sleep well, and be the cuddly, lovey baby that she is.
Don't have babies yet? Thats ok. You will be the coolest gift giver in the history of baby showers if you show up with one of these. No doubt.
So, how mean would I be, if I went on and on about this fabuloso baby item, and not give one away?? Therefore, here it is, my first giveaway - The amber teething necklace.

Definitely skeptical. Most moms swore by the teething tablets, and they did nothing for my poor daughter so I'm leery about any natural teething remedies.My daughter only has a few teeth left to cut, but my poor nephew is now going through the same thing.

I would love to win this since I am going to 2 baby showers this month! :)
I am usually skeptical of things like this, especially since it's just something you wear. But hey, if you're using it and notice a difference then I am all for trying that kind of thing. :) I hope I win!! It'd be nice to save some money on baby gifts this month! :D
I think it sounds great!!! Im willing to try anything! My only concern is that its a necklace. I worry about if I take my eyes off her for a second she could get it caught on something and it would choke her or something like that. I know I always think of the worst case scenario. But other than that I think it looks great!
Not skeptical at all! I've heard great things about these, just never tried one. Addie only has six teeth, so she's got a ways to go and I'd love to try out the amber!
I totally saw these at a baby boutique the other day and was mesmerized! I would be willing to give anything a shot when it all came down to it. I'd even throw a necklace on my baby BOY! hahaha! :) Fun giveaway!
I think I'm a little skeptical... but I'm willing to give anything a try once! :)

I have heard about these before but haven't bought one. I think Gracie is getting a molar so we could definitely try it. I'm not skeptical...your explanation sounded believable :) My only question is, can they wear them to bed and is it possible for them to figure out how to get them off (ie: choking hazard)???
I can't wait to see who wins!
Thanks for reminding me about the necklaces. After I read your post I went on a mission to find Katie's. So far I haven't noticed a difference but I'm still hoping!
hey! thanks for commenting on my blog. :) didnt you go to obu? i think i was a couple of years older than you! your daughters are precious! hope you are doing well!
I just blogged about the giveaway!
I'm not really skeptical as to if they will work. I am sure, just like every other product out there, that they will work for some and not for others. However, I would be concerned about them being a choking hazard, and therefore most likely wouldn't use them for my children.
LOVE the idea, but like everyone else, i'm scared of the choking hazard. i have a 3 week old, and figure it's never too early to start prepping for teething :)
i posted on my blog :)
