I was approached by Jenn Sanders from Baltic Wonder to write for you all! She is my guest writer and she is explaining how AMAZING amber teething necklaces are! Now I had never tried an amber necklace but I heard how people love them! Sutton has been very irritable and not taking her naps which I figured was teething. I was using my usual remedies I used on Harlow but it didn’t seem to help enough like it did for Harlow. So when I received my amber necklace I put it on Sutton instantly and waited for relief! Now I would never tell you guys to get something if I didn’t believe in it. I am completely blown away by the results. Sutton isn’t a drooler so I don’t know how it helps with drooling however, the irritable, cranky temperament and overall discomfort is gone when she is wearing this necklace. I never take it off of her except for nighttime I move it to her ankle so she won’t try and grab it. Jenn has written why this amber necklace works and it’s good! Read more below!

I chose the polished cognac amber necklace there is also a raw amber necklace option. When Sutton wears hers she is not bothered by it and rarely knows its on, it is very lightweight.

What Are Baltic Amber Teething Necklaces?

Baltic Amber teething necklaces are small beaded necklaces that are meant to be worn by your child to help relieve some of their teething pain. The necklace itself is made out of amber, which is fossilized tree resin. This natural and safe substance is found in the conifer trees that grow in the Baltic Sea region of the world.

How Do Baltic Amber Necklaces Work?

When your baby wears the amber necklace, their body heat warms the necklace and releases a very small amount of oil that contains succinic acid. Succinic acid is a natural acid that is similar to lemon juice.  It works by being absorbed into the skin. We already have small amounts of succinic acid in our bodies. It is also used in medicated creams that treat muscle soreness, and various vitamin supplements.

Baltic amber teething necklaces can help many of the symptoms of teething. The first would be inflammation. As your baby’s teeth are coming through, they will experience al out of swelling in their mouths. The teething necklace can take down some of that swelling and provide relief.

Teething necklaces come in many colors and styles. The most common ones are yellow or orange and they typically have a milky appearance. There are different shapes you can buy, but for your baby, the smooth beads are the best choice. Other shapes can have jagged edges that could irritate your baby’s skin. Also, only choose necklaces that have beads that have been tied to the necklace many times. This will prevent any beads from falling off and potentially harming your child.  Finally, it is incredibly important to purchase your necklace from a reputable retailer.
