Studies show that depressed and stressed-out mothers inhibit babies'
abilities to feel happiness for positive events later in their lives.
mums who are finding the experience difficult due to their babies
dwindling attention spans could be cumulatively spending a
great amount of time holding back their babies' brain formation.
If your baby's main sport involves pulling your hair, pinching your skin,
biting you, and otherwise playfully torturing you while nursing,
you need a nursing necklace!
When baby's uncontrollable urge for exploration comes at your
expense, redirect their attention toward the nursing necklace.
A nursing necklace is a necklace especially designed for mums to wear
whilst breastfeeding. Its invaluable at saving your more precious and
expensive jewellery from babies clutches and also a great way to stop
babies pinching, scratching and hair pulling at the same time as
encouraging your little ones development.
A Breast-Buddies Nursing Necklace has been specially designed
to appeal to and stimulate your baby.
When wearing a Nursing Necklace you increase your baby's focus on the
breast area, encouraging baby to explore the necklace rather than turn
away at distractions. This is invaluable, especially if you have a strong let
down reflex. Our Nursing Necklaces will help to alleviate babies fiddling with
whatever they can get their hands on, and you have the piece of mind of
knowing that it will not break, is 100% safe and is a great learning aid
encouraging exploration of new textures, colours sounds and shapes.
Breast-Buddies Nursing Necklaces are made by Mums,
for Mums so we understand exactly what will engage your baby.

But that's not all the awesomeness! How 'bout the other
ways our Nursing Necklaces boost brain development?
While talking in Latin and reciting the Prime Ministers in order,
over and over again, might be a bit heavy for a 3-month old, colours
and patterns speak for themselves. The colours and sights of our
Nursing Necklaces make baby want to reach out and grasp. Research
shows that a moderate amount of stimulation, tailored to a young
infant's needs, results in earlier development of reaching.
Either very little, or excessive stimulation actually results in a
slower progress of motor skills. (Burton White, Richard Held, 1966).
A Nursing Necklace introduced at regular times of the day, provides
all the developmentally necessary stimulation for your baby. Too
many toys can actually be detrimental, causing
emotional distress in your baby
This visual stimulation is important because it makes your baby
want to reachout and grasp and of all motor skills, voluntary reaching
is believed to play the greatest role in infant cognitive development,
because it opens a new world of exploring the environment.
(Bushnell & Boudreau, 1993) Our Nursing Necklaces are an ideal
stimulator, with various shapes, textures, temperatures (smoother beads
are cooler to the touch), sizes and weights. By grasping, exploring and
seeing what happens when the necklace is released, infants learn
about the sights, sounds, and feel of objects, encouraging
further exploration and growth.
You start attracting your baby's interest by using Our Nursing
Necklaces containing colours your baby prefers. Until two months
of age, babies can best see and enjoy black, white and red contrasting
objects. (Banks & Ginsburg, 1985). By two months of age, their
detection of detail in objects has increased and their interest in their
Necklace will also increase (Little one under 2 months? Have a look
at our Newborn range, Designed with strong contrasts which
will stimulate and appeal to younger eyes!).
However, it's best to have more than one nursing necklace.
Our brains are all designed to be attracted to novelty.
(Fagan & Singer, 1979) If you want your baby to be drawn to
your Nursing Necklace instead of your hair, you'll best keep their
interest by offering some change. We would advise
2 or 3 and they be swapped regularly.
