Testimonial
"OMG!!! I have to say thank you thank you thank you!!! I can’t say it enough! I purchased a necklace for myself and my grandson (8 1/2 months)… He has been teething horribly so… Wouldn’t eat much, wouldn’t drink his bottle, couldn’t sleep comfortably, wanted to be held, wanted to be put down, wanted neither, fever, cranky… You get the picture (…) He has been wearing his new [necklace] for the past 6 hours. He is not grouchy, he drank a full bottle before his supper, ate all his supper (even said mmmm during) and after supper he had another bottle! He hasn’t had any (other medication), he (…) even went to sleep in his own bed without being cuddled/rocked to sleep!!!! I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!»"
