three reasons to use baltic amber from hazelaid + a coupon and giveaway #aSIMPLEchristmas

We are in the full stages of teething. We finally had 2 teeth pop through at 10 months old. My kids are late teethers. Which is fine, but I wanted to be prepared for any symptoms that were to come along with the teething.  I swear Miss C has been drooling since she was born, so I really never knew of this being a sign for teething.

My kids have always worn a baltic amber teething necklace since they were born. I knew I had to get one for Miss C since I felt it was time for a new one as she was wearing the one I had for Miss M.

If you have never heard of baltic amber and the reasoning behind using it for teething then continue reading. Hazelaid is the place to get your baltic amber necklaces.

First a little big about baltic amber. All amber is fossilized tree resin. Baltic amber in particular (mined from near the Baltic Sea) additionally contains a substance called succinic acid. Historically it is believe that when worn on the skin, body heat causes Baltic amber to release an oil containing succinic acid, which if absorbed into the skin, might act like a natural Ibuprofen, blocking pain and reducing inflammation. Succinic acid is an alkalinizing acid (like lemon juice) so it wouldn’t add to your body’s acidity, and may actually slightly lower it, making it’s compatible with hazelwood jewelry.

Three reasons to use baltic amber necklaces ::

• Teething – I seriously think it is pretty much a magical necklace. None of my kids have had teething symptoms, like EVER!  I am grateful for that because I know it can get pretty back for some kiddos. By having your baby wear the necklace everyday, it will help to reduce the common symptoms related to teething such as; redness in the cheeks, swollen gums, diaper rashes and fevers.
• Pain and inflammation – as I said before it releases an oil which is absorbed into the skin and might act like a natural ibuprofen helping with pain and reducing inflammation.
• Headaches – So yes, that means adults can wear these to.

Now if you child or you are having issues with rashes or eczema, you need to check out the Hazelwood necklaces.

Hazelaid will always be on my kids until they are 4-5 years old. We love it and definitely recommend getting one for you child.  There are many different shapes, sizes and colors of baltic amber necklaces at Hazelaid.
