When I was nursing my son, he would rest on me sweetly and I relished in these beautiful moments of bonding with him. Then as he got older, he started to fidget while nursing and that often meant tugging on my hair, hard. That became much less beautiful and I began asking around about how to remedy this so that it wouldn’t completely ruin our nursing sessions. Many people recommended that I try using a nursing necklace for him to tug on instead and the one I made was very basic and boring, but it did the trick. When I saw pictures of the necklaces at Chewelry by Misty, I knew that I was going to have to try them.
Chewelry by Misty makes nursing, sensory, and teething jewelry and accessories from food-grade silicone. The colors are so vibrant that they’ll definitely catch the attention of your children, I know I was blown away by how pretty they were even just in photos! They are even more gorgeous in person, so bright and soft! I love the texture, the beads have this amazing smooth feeling that really has a calming sensation to it.
I’m understanding the sensory aspect from a personal level because normally, I would be biting my nails while trying to write a post. Instead, I’ve been wearing our necklace all evening and periodically rubbing it to relax myself and re-focus on my writing. Misty even mentioned that when traffic stresses her out, the keychains would be perfect to calm down. I just love the multi-functional purpose of Chewelry by Misty!
My kids took turns wearing our adorable little giraffe with rainbows. My son gave it lots of kisses and my youngest daughter thought it was the cutest jewelry ever. It was impossible to get an action shot because he was all over the place with his new best friend. Actually, my little man gets upset if he catches me wearing it but I’ll definitely be using Chewelry by Misty to distract the new baby while nursing too. They can pull at it without risking it breaking because the cord is so sturdy, and also without worrying about hurting Mom!
For your teething toddler, there are wooden pendants or these smooth beads. I can imagine that they are very soothing for those irritated gums! I’ve noticed that the silicone necklaces like ours can be frozen to be nice and cool for teething as well. The typical water teethers people use never worked for my children and I’ve seen plenty of them pop! I think that these necklaces appeal so much to kids that it would be a breeze and since either one of you can wear it, you don’t have to risk dropping it like my kids always did with the teethers!
I do wish Chewelry by Misty was around when my other kids were little! They never took pacifiers and nothing ever worked. We did try one teether that worked but it had no necklace attached and it cost more than these pieces of chewelry! I’m sold and my kids are already insisting on each having one of their own and I plan to wear one for myself and while nursing Crunchy #5 too.

I love them all but especially the giraffe style!!
I love the rainbow necklace.
I love the rainbow beads!
MY sister would really love this ,first time seeing them ,thanks
They are all so adorable that it is really hard to pick a favorite. I guess if I had to pick one, I really think the Spotted Love Tula Giraffe Accessory is the cutest!! My little guy is having the hardest time with teething. it feels like it’s been going on forever! And, he’s going through like four shirts a day because of the drooling. I want to try these and see if they offer any relief to him. Great idea!!
I love the look of the wooden elephants but I think my little one would probably enjoy the sensory experience of the giraffe best and her older brothers would probably most enjoy her having a pink helicopter which is a pendant I haven’t seen before. Basically I love them all and would have a hard time picking just one!
Love the elephant teether!
I love the rainbow with the star! It would be amazing to win my very first piece ever so I can give it a try!
