Cole's been wearing a baltic amber teething necklace for months now, and I'm constantly getting comments on how cute it is! While I agree that it's adorable, that's just an added benefit - the necklace is really for teething pain! Baltic Amber is supposed to relive pain naturally as you wear it because it has succinic acid, which is said to seep into the skin. True or not, I believe that my son is happier while teething than most babies, and certainly seems happier when he's wearing his necklace than when he isn't.
Next comes my own experiment - I finally decided to try an amber necklace for myself, to see how it affects my neck pain! I can't wait until it comes in! And of course while I was shopping at InspiredByFinn.com, I just had to order another necklace for Cole! They say that the lighter and cloudier ambers have more succinic acid, so I got a lighter one to see if it helps even more :)
On another note, Cole turned 11 months old on Monday, and on the same day, took his first steps!!! I can't believe he'll be a year old soon!
