I have heard about nursing beads before but wasn't sure how great they would be. I have a 11week old boy who wriggles about and gets fretful when feeding. So I thought I would give them a try. Works wonders, he now holds onto these and is much calmer, would recommend to others.
I'd heard about "nursing beads" but was a little bit sceptical about how effective they would be. But i shouldn't have doubted them- as soon as i started wearing it, my 7 month old daughter was fascinated by them. Previously, she was taking a handful of skin in her hand and pinching it (very painful) and is also at the age where she is easily distracted from feeding by other things going on around her. The beads have put a stop to all that. She now feeds contendedly, without pinching or trying to turn around to see what's happening behind her! I will definately be recommending this to other nursing friends.
