    Amber necklace... When did you take it off???

    DS has had his necklace on since he was 6 months old, he is now 4 and a bit. The other day the necklace fell off (first time in nearly 4 years - great quality!!) simply because it had unscrewed. Anyway I found it on the floor and said "hey J look this fell off" the look on his face was priceless and he was nearly in tears when he realised it wasn't on him. I them put it back on and he kept touching it to see if it was on, bless his cottons.

    So I was wondering firstly, when did you take off your child's necklace and I guess he has another year before he starts school and we have to worry about it!!

    My 9 year old still wears one on occasions we just tuck it into her school shirt/dress. My 7 yr old chews his or tugs on it (asd so very oral seeking) so he doesn't and I think the 3 year old will wear his forever lol he has been wearing one since a few months and loves it.

    My 2.75 year old has just decided to take it off and i am so upset. SHe has had it since she was 4 months. Some days she puts it back on again, but its no longer constant. Unfortunately, she also takes DS' off, so i am trying to persuade her to leave his alone.

    My four yr old had his on up till a few months ago when he took it off or his sister did and now I can't find it I want to keep it for him. My 20 mth olds one has been removed also by his sister, I only realised it was gone two weeks ago and not sure we're it is either.

    My 8 yr old asd son also wore one for a while too, but he was chewing it so much he cracked/bit off about five of the beads. I notice he had it on last night actually but he has taken it off again this morning.

    I leave my kids' ones on all the time little_o.

    DS had his on until just after he cut his 2yo molars. The only reason he doesn't still wear it is because it broke (the thread detached from the clasp) I didn't replace it as he had cut all his teeth so didn't see the point. DD has been wearing hers since about 2mo and we never take it off.

    My two yr old just cut his last molars and we r bout to have a newborn. So I was going to just give the necklace to the new baby.
    Will it still work, or do I really need to cleanse it in the moonlight? Lol

    Not yet, and DD1 is 4y5m. She's a girl though (obviously) so doesn't have stereotypes and judging peers to contend with. It's probably different for a boy, although I'd leave it on unless he wants it off. DP and I wear amber - me for arthritis inflammation and DP for persistent headaches and migraines, and it is amazing - not just for babies/teething.

    It's strange isn't it Tanstar

    After a few weeks of not wearing his, one day out of the blue DS came out and asked if he could have it back on! So it's back I have no idea where the request to take it off came from or the sudden request to have it back came from. Who knows what goes on in their little minds sometimes

    DD1 and DD2 have theirs off for a while now. Have no idea why they didnt want to wear them any more or what the go was but I put them up high and kept them safe for them. Anyhow the other week they found them. DD2 doesnt really want to wear it anymore, its just not her fashion choice apparently. But DD1 has started wearing hers again, and doesnt want to take it off. But I cant wait to get asked by her school for her to take it off.
