Today – what are pregnancy necklaces?
What are pregnancy necklaces? – and what do they do
But what are pregnancy necklaces? I wondered this as I received the beautiful gift of a bola? Something I had never come across or heard of before. I decided to explore the concept further and actually I found it all fascinating.
I was given the most beautiful ball necklace when I was pregnant and I was enchanted to when I found out what it was for. I was asked about it all the time. So much so I promised to write about it one day and then, as they do, the years slipped by.
This week I have been looking at a range of stunning bolas at Le Petit Bola They sell the most beautiful pregnancy necklaces and it struck me again how many people had asked me …what are pregnancy necklaces, what do they do?
So I guess it is time to explain pregnancy necklaces and what they are all about.
Types of pregnancy necklaces – A bola or harmony ball
A ‘bola’ or ‘harmony ball‘ can be found in many cultures right across the world and these have been around since ancient times. They are beginning to gain popularity here due to our understanding of how much our babies, even inside of us, an actually feel and hear. Do you know a baby begins to hear at about 26 weeks of pregnancy?
How do pregnancy necklaces work
One school of thought is that babies will hear these lovely chines from the bola whilst in their mother’s tummy and after birth, these sweet familiar chimes will again soother them.
Other thoughts on the use of the bola (the prettiest of pregnancy necklaces) are more mystical;
A gentle shake of this pendant releases a soft chime sound that brings inner calm and harmony, and is believed to call the wearer’s Guardian Angel.
I have to say I think both ideas are just absolutely gorgeous!
Plus a bola is just so very pretty isn’t it! Such a beautiful idea for a pregnancy gift.
I found my bola actually calmed me down and encouraged me to slow the pace when I was pregnant due to the soft chimes and the visual reminder.
Bolas come in a range of styles and necklaces really can be simple gorgeous.
So, not only do they not only look beautiful they are designed to enhance your bond with your baby – nothing could be quite so precious.
