It works. I was even surprised with the way it worked. Though some people later told me it depends on where it is bought. I got mine from https://www.balticessentials.com/ and it really worked like magic. I think the most important thing is for people to check where they want to buy it very well]]> Fri, 28 May 2021 11:59:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26789&PID=5912538&title=amber-teething-necklaces#5912538 <![CDATA[Amber teething necklaces : It works.

Amber is a natural anti inflammatory, it releases traces of succinic acid ( found in amber from the baltic region ) which is absorbed through the skin. ]]> Wed, 09 Sep 2009 17:31:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26789&PID=770492&title=amber-teething-necklaces#770492 <![CDATA[Amber teething necklaces : Does anyone know how the beads...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26789&PID=770488&title=amber-teething-necklaces#770488 Author: Georgiegirl

yep I leave it on for day sleeps, as they're only 45min long if that!!

But will also try it overnight as she doesn't wriggle around at all, and we co-sleep.

I've seen those anklets, wondered whether they'd work just the same. May get one of those too! Double the pain relief

I was also a bit worried about leaving a necklace on a baby overnight especially as my girl is such a wriggly, grabby eel, so I got her an anklet. Problem solved.

She wears it 24/7 and I swear by it.

I got mine from this woman http://chookmook.co.nz and have since brought 3 others for friends.

Miss L has been wearing her honey coloured amber necklace since she was 12 weeks. Her first tooth appeared a couple of weeks ago and we didn't even realise!

She has had very unsettled nights the last few weeks, but I always take her necklace off before bed. After reading this thread I'm going to keep it on and see if that helps.

We don't use bonjela. Her cheeks sometimes redden and she is a lil bit dribbly but no apparent pain when she has it on. I highly recommend them ]]> Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:42:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26789&PID=745527&title=amber-teething-necklaces#745527 <![CDATA[Amber teething necklaces : bump for shannon ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26789&PID=745079&title=amber-teething-necklaces#745079 Author: Bizzy

On reading this conversation, I have ordered some amber teething beads frm steffi on TM. My youngest has terrible teething rash on cheeks and chest and NOTHING helps to ease it. I will take before and hopefully some impressive after photos and post (when I learn how!)

I have been doing some research. There is a trader called Stefi which has them on Trademe.

The lighter colour ie lemon one has more of the acid so should work better than the darker ones.

When you get it heat up a pin & press this into it, should let off a woody smell.

I got mine from trademe - for $24.50 and its awesome!

After having 3-4 bad nights of Lily waking up 3-4 times a night with her first tooth - her second came through with no problems - just red cheeks! I only used bonjela once with her 2nd tooth!

She doesn't dribble and I'm hoping that the necklace works just as well for the rest of her teeth!

She wears it 24/7!

I totally recommend them!

Shellandbella, there are tons on trademe.

Jezsika apparently the lighter ones contain more succinic acid. I don't know if that makes them more effective though, maybe a little bit.

I have one and DS has just cut his first two teeth, I didn't notice them really, he has fussy days, but I think babies have fussy days.

He always has bright bright red cheeks, so people think he is teething, but he is perfectly happy.

I was given one for my baby by a friend who bought 1 (get 1 free) off the internet. The Baltic Amber beads are a homeopathic remedy so its one of those grey areas when it comes to pain relief. Apparently people having been using amber for centuries?
Jaye got his first four teeth (all at once!) without a fuss. Its a different story with the two that are coming down now but he's still pretty good. Can't really put it down to the necklace though.
He wears his necklace every day because I will give anything a go, its natural, and it also looks pretty cute!
