Remember remember....

One of the trickiest things I found about early days with a newborn baby was keeping track of which side I needed to feed from next. If its not something you have dealt with I can assure you - if you skip one side accidentally it hurts. A lot. Think boulder-boob. Not good!

So when I started thinking about designs to make breastfeeding reminder bracelets were pretty high on my agenda. It had to be something that was very easy to switch from one side to the other, as well as being smooth so baby's head could rest on that part of the arm if necessary.

So far I've come up with two different designs. The first is 'Elephants Never Forget'. I absolutely love this charm, its so adorable!



The second is 'My Heart' with a smaller, more delicate charm.


Both designs are currently available in fluorite and moonstone. Moonstone is reputed to be especially good for breastfeeding as it balances hormonal cycles. Fluorite is meant to be very good for healing as it helps with cell regeneration, perfect for post-birth recuperation.
