Best of Pregnancy Winner for Top Pregnancy Jewelry Brand

And the Winner Is: Ilado

You may feel an immediate connection with baby. Or it may take a little longer, perhaps until you feel baby’s first kicks, or even until you’re holding a swaddled bundle in your arms. It’s all okay! A maternity bell necklace can help strengthen your bond during pregnancy and offer reassurance once baby arrives. Inspired by a Mayan tradition, Ilado pregnancy necklaces emit a subtle tinkling noise, almost like a melody, when worn. The necklace sits atop your bump and rolls back and forth as you move, giving off musical vibrations baby can feel and hear. After baby arrives, these same sweet sounds will create a familiar feeling as they adjust to life outside the womb.

What We Love

• This pendant is equal parts stylish and purposeful, helping to bond you and baby through subtle melodies.

• You can roll the bell over your belly during pregnancy and continue to wear it after delivery, when you nurse or rock baby to sleep.

• The company was founded by two mothers who wanted to share this tradition with as many Moms to be as possible.
