I had my first child in 2008 and I swear I've been breastfeeding ever since then, okay maybe not that long, but long, because I had another child in 2011 and breastfed her for a very long time too. I tell you this because the entire time I nursed, I stopped wearing necklaces. Now, that my nursing days are behind me I'm CRAZY about necklaces and I'm thrilled that statement necklaces are still going strong. Not only are they going strong, but you can get great ones at VERY reasonable prices.
