Amber Teething Relief Necklace

Posted by Heather Manning On January - 6 - 2010

Now, I want you to hear me out before you give me the same look of disbelief that I got from the nurse who commented on Christiano’s necklace when we took Kat to the ER for her ear infection.

I thought it was adorable when I saw it, and I held out hope that it would ease the teething a little.  I was nervous it wouldn’t be as good as the reviews that I read said it would be.  This thing works.  And it works awesome!

Let me introduce you to the SuperMama Amber Teething Pain Relief necklace.  You’ve probably seen it in some of the pictures that I have taken of Nano lately.  It was gorgeous in my Project 365 Day 6 picture.  If you cruise through my pictures from the last couple of weeks, he has it on. Know why?  Cuz it works.  I noticed a huge difference in his attitude a few hours after I put it on him (He was breaking in tooth number 3 on top – number 5 total the day I got it.)  I only take it off of him now to sleep and to shower.  (I’m home all day with him, he’s never left unsupervised with it on.)

Is that not perfect?  I probably would even put it on him even if it didn’t work, but it’s made such a huge difference, I am not taking it off until his last tooth comes in – when is that?  At like 10?  We might need a bigger size by then.

Let me let SuperMama explain it to you because they go into how it works so much better than I could.

How does SuperMama necklace sooth teething pain? SuperMama necklace is made of the highest Baltic amber quality. European babies have worn necklaces of pure Baltic amber, prized for their beauty and soothing qualities for babies and adults. Worn against the skin, the Baltic amber of the Teething Necklace releases natural oils with proven analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects that soothe teething pain and reduce drooling. Each pure, natural Baltic amber bead of your Teething Necklace is individually knotted for safety and durability, creating a cherished gift of lasting beauty and pain relief for any baby you love. The necklace is not intended for chewing or biting.
Advantages:

  • Naturally prevents and soothes teething pain
  • Analgesic & anti-inflammatory effects
  • 100% Natural Baltic Amber
  • Releases natural oils with proven calming, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects when worn against the skin
  • Singularly knotted beads and safe screw clasp for baby safety
  • Not intended for chewing or biting
  • Sold in European pharmacies for generations

Ok, so I told you that it changed Christiano’s demeanor in a few hours.  Do you want to know how much?  So much so that he had a fourth tooth come in on top (6th tooth total now) and I didn’t even notice it until it was half way in and I could really see it.  No crying.  No crankiness.  No nada.  I was in shock.  My son does not do teething well. (before the teething necklace) Before he was cranky, irritable, and didn’t feel good, plus, he wanted everyone to know it and feel the same way.  He also drooled a gallon of drool in an hour (I might be exaggerating, but then again, I might not be, it was a lot.)  I didn’t even notice any extra drool with that tooth that was sneaking in.  That’s normally the first sign that he has a tooth coming in.

Plus, and are you ready for this?  Remember how often I was complaining about Christiano biting me while he was nursing?  Every time I nursed him he bit me, multiple times.  I thought he was just having fun at my expense.  I didn’t relate the fact that he’s been teething constantly and he was probably biting down to make himself feel better.  Since he’s had the SuperMama Teething Pain Relief Necklace he hasn’t bit me once.  Serious.  Look back through my posts.  Not one complaint.  Ask Pato.  He hasn’t heard a OUCH! No Nano! coming from the bedroom.

He even asked me about it the other day.  Commented on the fact that he finally noticed Christiano’s new tooth and that he hadn’t acted like it bothered him.  I said, it was the necklace.  He looked at it and nodded.  Pato’s not a man of many words, that meant he agreed with me.

You can get the necklace for $24.99 on SuperMamaOnline.com. If you think that is pricey, think about the fact that I have not had to give Christiano any Tylenol, any teething tablets, no teething gel (BTW – have you put that stuff on your own gums?  Try it sometime, I did.  It burns.) anything at all for his teething.  The necklace completely worked,  he didn’t show any symptoms of teething so I didn’t have to break out the pain relief for him.  I wish I’d had this from the start of him getting teeth, because even with the other products, he was still cranky, still wanted to be held all the time, still just wanted to lay in bed next to me.  He’s been perfectly normal, perfectly content Christian, which again, is why I almost completely missed him getting a new tooth.

If you are a mom to a teether, if you’re a new mom, if you know a new mom or a mom-to-be, this is what I recommend you get.  It is now on my list of baby shower presents that must be bought.  (I buy necessary things that I worry others will forget for shower presents, you know tylenol, gas drops, that good stuff.)  This is on my necessary list.

It comes in the mixed amber that Christiano has and honey, a beautiful lighter colored necklace.

While you’re at SuperMama join SuperMama club! You could win one of the Amber Teething Necklaces! Plus they send out coupons and it’s free.

Can you tell I love it? I wouldn’t give it up.

You’re Tired Of Hearing It

Posted by Heather Manning On January - 6 - 2010

But, it’s cold.  How cold might you ask?

January2010-9

That my friends is the frost on the door to my apartment building INSIDE.  That’s the bottom of the door.  The top is frosted over too.  I’m afraid my fingers will freeze to the metal if I touch it, kind of like when you’re stupid and stick your tongue to a metal pole in the middle of winter, who does that, oh wait, I know someone who did. Our hallway is heated.  I swear to it.  Obviously not enough.

So, the ol’ tongue to the metal pole story.  When I was in 8th grade, Matt Wilson (I’d protect the innocent, but it’s a common name and what he did was really really stupid, love ya Matt if by some way you pop back into my world 17 years after graduation,  via my blog.) stuck his tongue to the metal railing that led up the steps to the middle school in the dead of winter in Iowa.  He lost a good size chunk of it pulling his tongue off.  And the rest of the winter we’d all look to see if that was still there.  Yep, it’s still cold, there’s Matt’s tongue.  Ok, how gross is that.  I can’t believe I shared that with you.  Everyone is going to be running from my blog to pray to the porcelain God.  Sorry bout that.

That’s about as good of a story as the time that Cooper pulled down his pants and lit his current of smelly air with a lighter at a party and burned all the hairs off of there.  I, of course, was not at that party because I wasn’t cool and didn’t get invited was a good girl and didn’t attend unsupervised parties.

I don’t know about you but I’m rolling over here, so hard that Christiano has joined me in my laughter.  Maybe you just had to be there which of course I wasn’t.

The good old days man.

On the serious side for something important for the Ricky Martin tweet of the day –

I don’t think there is anything more important than that message.

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Project 365 Day 6

Posted by Heather Manning On January - 6 - 2010

You knew I’d break right?  I can only go so long without a picture of my kids.  They are my  cutest subjects and I can only take so many pictures of snow.

Project365-2010-6

So there you have it.  Alyce and Nano in their jammies. 

For this picture I used my Soft Black and White and Blur That Back PSP Scripts.

Those only work with Paint Shop Pro but I assume there are similar ones avaiable for Photoshop since you all have more actions than we do scripts. :)
