"By the way, it is not a superstition when Swiss mothers
put amber necklaces around the necks of their children
when they are teething, but the fact is that amber - like
brass and coal - has highest radiating power - a sixfold"
(MOHLBERG, according to SCHRÖDTER).

Ease teething with water - no sweet drinks!
from: http://www.rund-ums-baby.de/erstezaehne.htm
[web10]
Teething children are usually very thirsty. A cool sip
of tea or water comes in handy then. For years, however,
dentists and pediatricians have warned against giving
babies sugared drinks in their bottles. Continuous
sucking of such liquids can quickly lead to caries, as
the still young teeth are permanently washed around by
sugar.
Fruit juices should also be consumed with caution, as
fruit acids can also severely attack tooth enamel.
[Continuous sucking on a pacifier or a juice bottle also
leads to misalignment of the child's teeth].
So
it's good if mom and dad keep an eye on their favorite's
drinking behavior and don't let him or her suck away
unobserved with the bottle. Doctors recommend that
children get used to drinking from a special sippy cup
by the end of their first year of life to prevent
unpleasant tooth decay.
As soon as the first little biter flashes in the mouth,
it is time for consistent oral hygiene. Clean it with a
moist gauze cloth or ear swab. That is enough at first.
Proper and healthy nutrition also helps maintain a
healthy and strong set of teeth. Last but not least,
chewing should be encouraged. Bread crusts, carrot and
apple pieces, for example, are just right.

Amber: name and
use
Amber is one of the most famous gemstones in the
world. It is especially rare when, for example, an
insect has been enclosed in it.
-- Amber, in German speaking regions also known as
Seestein ("sea stone") or Amber, is a gemstone in
many different colors. It comes in blue, red, green,
but most stones are golden.
-- This fossil tree resin is one of the oldest
gemstones, and it was very wanted. Already in
ancient times it was used for ornaments.
-- Probably the most famous work made of amber is
the Amber Room in Russia. The German name
"Bernstein" comes from the Low German word
"Börnsteen" (burning stone) and is derived from the
combustibility of the stone.
An amber can have many effects both on the body and on
the soul. It is used as a gemstone, talisman or even as
medicine.
-- The amber is known as a healing stone [resin]. In
ancient times it was used, for example, by Thales of
Miletus, to treat pathogens, fever, or gout.
-- If an amber is worn as an amulet, it is said to be
able to ward off impending disaster. It is also said to
protect against witches, demons, and trolls.
-- In the Middle Ages, it was taken as a medicine
against bladder problems and for diseases of the liver,
kidneys, and gall bladder. For this purpose, an amber
was ground and swallowed.
-- In addition, amber is said to give joy for life. It
calms and helps with anxiety, depression and provides
creative ideas. It improves decision-making, flexibility
and is said to lead to a more attractive appearance.
How to use an amber
For developing its effects, it must be taken care of. It
is not advisable to expose it to direct sunlight,
otherwise it will become brittle.
-- An amber can have an effect on the body if it is worn
directly on the skin for a long time. It then becomes
slightly warm and is said to transmit positive energy.
This works especially well on the solar plexus, between
the chest and ribs.
-- If the amber is no longer properly warm, it should be
"discharged". This means that it is put under lukewarm
water. After that, it is ready for use again.
