Inspired By Finn: Baltic Amber Necklace Review



A few months ago I was at the end of my "teething" rope. Corban was cutting 2 teeth at once and everything i tried wasn't helping. Not the homeopathic stuff, teething tablets, tylenol.. nothing. He was super fussy. Wouldn't sleep, eat.. it was miserable. I asked around and a few of my friends told me about these teething necklaces. I was skeptical that a piece of jewelry (not to be chewed) could actually help! But, i was willing to try anything. So, after some research i bought two of the Butter Round necklaces in sizes 11.5-12.5 at Inspired By Finn for Corban and Kinsley. I was anxious to get them and they arrived within a few days! It has been about 2 months now and i can tell you that Corban has cut 5 additional teeth without any issues. I mean, not even a fuss. Kinsley has since cut 2 teeth as well and the only reason we knew was because we saw them one day. No fuss from her either. Even my husband was amazed that they worked so well. I am no longer a skeptic, and have been telling all my friends about these wonderful necklaces. You can get one too by shopping at Inspired by Finn. Browse around their website, i am sure you will be as intrigued as i was!

I have included a few pictures of Corban and Kinsley in their necklaces to show you what they look like. They are 12 months old!


I also received a necklace at a discount for the purpose of this review. i bought the lemonade color in an adult size. Though i did not see such a drastic result as the twins i will say it helps my headaches when i am wearing it!

Here is some additional information from their website:
"Among other things, amber is a natural analgesic (pain reliever) and anti-inflammatory. When amber is worn on the skin, the warmth of the skin releases trace amounts of healing oils on the skin. Commonly known as "teething jewelry," baltic amber has been a natural and traditional European remedy for teething discomfort for hundreds of years. To read more about the many benefits of baltic amber, click here.

Our necklaces and bracelets are handcrafted and are made of authentic Baltic amber, the most esteemed type of amber in the world. The translucency of amber depends on the amount of air bubbles contained within a piece of amber and their distribution. Some believe the color is related to the type of tree source.

Succinic acid is the most beneficial component of the amber. It is scientifically accepted that the darkest colored amber generally contains less succinic acid than lighter colors. The more cloudy or opaque amber is, the more succinic acid it contains (and usually the more cloudy amber is the nearer to the color white it becomes).

The necklace fastens with a screw clasp, and the necklace cord is knotted in between each bead. Please be sure and measure for the length you need. For guidance on measuring, please click here.

WARNING - Necklace contains small parts; Children should be supervised when wearing jewelry, and it should be removed when the child sleeps."

Aren't they amazing? WE love Courtney's. People always say "Look at her cute necklace." and I go into this big long story about how wonderful they are.

So glad you are a believer now, it's one of those 'see to believe' type of items. We walked Heidi out of the hospital with hers on and almost three years later she's still wearing hers at her request. I believe it's one of the secret tools that make us look like awesome parents. "Yeah, she's teething but we're all doing great!" =)
