    Question Breastfeeding Necklace

    Does anyone have one of these?

    I was thinking of trying one as DS is constantly scratching, pinching, pulling (bra strap or hair), tweaking.....you name it!..... while feeding! Arrgh it's driving me mad so I need something to distract him.

    I'm not that big on jewelery though so I didn't want anything too flashy or bulky!

    Does anyone know where I could get one?

    Hi!

    The ABA sell them, and they are quite bright but easy to remove with an emergency release if bubs pulls too hard. They are $34.95, cheaper for members.

    I bought one of these - Breast Buddies I think the brand was. Google that and you should find some.

    I bought it to use when DS was constantly distracted and not wanting to feed properly, but I never ended up using it much as it had little jingly bells in some of the beads which was actually too distracting for DS . They have one without the bells too though. I don't think they are that attractive though!

    I also found a US company that sells them - both ones that have novelty beads to amuse bub, and others that are more fashionable - but with, say, a bead that turns or whatever - and they can also customise them too so that it has your bub's name or whatever spelled out in beads, and you can choose what beads/charms you want included. I can't recall the name of the site off the top of my head, but happy to have a look and see if I can find it if you're keen. I'm going to get one of these ones if I ever have the need again.

    Cheers,

    Couldnt you just wear any funky necklace????? Nothing against ABA or anything ( i think they are fantastic BTW), but wouldnt a $5 necklace from Diva or something do the trick?
    My DD is doing the same ATM - the trees blowing outside are more interesting than my boobs.....so i just pulled out a chunky, funky necklace from my jewellery box...did the trick....
