Chime Necklaces?

**{sarah}** · September 25th, 2007, 03:44 PM

Just wondered if anyone has / had a chime necklace for their pregnancy? I've been looking at them & am planning on getting one, for the pretty factor & also because of what they're all about. The idea is that the chime (usually in a sterling silver ball) rests on your pregnant tummy & as you move it plays a soft sound. You know the Chinese chime balls that you twirl in one hand, it's a similar principle. I'm just waiting on a postage price from Mother's Direct & then I'll be getting one.

I figure if I can give bub a soothing sound in contrast to the arguing with Zander over packing up his toys it's gotta be a good thing

And it's nice to be able to buy something for myself

Oh no Blanche. I wonder what that was all about.... Hopefully you have more success with it this time.

I've got one Sarah. They're called harmony balls. I don't know if it does what they say it does but hey, any excuse for more jewellery and anyway, it's a lovely concept! Enjoy!

I've actually found quite a few different named ones, baby chimes being the main one. They originate from the Mexican Bola from what i understand. Some are super expensive though, the baby chimes are around $75 + postage.

I have one - wore it while pregnant and now on a shorter piece of silver elastic and DS plays with it. I love it !!!

Yeah, I saw some that were really expensive. I think I ended up paying about $55 for mine. It's got little stars on it. So cute.

Will be interested to see what bub thinks of it.

Do you have Ishka up there? Or any of those stores that sell the Indonesian made furniture/clothing/jewelery. I got one from there a few years ago for about $40.
