Thank you so much for letting us know, Linda and Elyse! That means that ScarletBegonias is OKAY!!!

Now all we need is a post from her. Pretty pretty please?????

I got mine too!!! I think everything is aligning for me to give birth very soon! I am wearing them, I love them so much and hopefully all the energy is going to help get me in to labor very soon, tomorrow I am 41 weeks.

I contributed the oval ones with the yellow and white daisies. I love that there were some other similar ones to that on there too. I also love the little owl bead! Well I love them all, they're so pretty!

[eilonwy]

The ones I sent were small, round polished amethyst stones.

[bloominmamas]

Got my necklace today, yippee!!!

My bead is the turquiose (sorry for the spelling) round small beads. I have always had a strong connection to 'em.

[SamuraiMom]

I sent the round wooden red and tanish/orangish beads! Yay, so glad they are arriving just in time. Would love to hear from miss SB and know things are O.K. with her though!!!! Where are you lady???/

[nausicaamom]

I sent the chocolate brown clay tear-drops. I can't wait to get mine in the mail - it's going to be so nice having that connection with all of you .

Please do pop in SB - I know how hard it's been for me to get anything done while pregnant, doing all of those necklaces must have been beyond daunting.

[smokeylo]

Mine are round and greenish with a flower on them. I'm having a hard time spotting them in the pic (I need new glasses badly!!). Anyway, I hope I get my beads soon, too! That would REALLY make me feel like the baby can show up any time!

[camille76]

I don't get it... do you wear this while you give birth? Or are they just called "birth beads" because it's a gift for the occasion?

[the elyse]

i sent the owl beads! i actually bought one while i was in austin and made a necklace out of it. i figured out that i put it on ON the conception date, and i haven't taken it off since. it only made sense to get the owl beads to share with everyone. i'm obsessed with owls during this pregnancy!

My DD and I went shopping for the beads together...we could not decide! So, she picked the glass cubes, they are all a little different, but colorful and I picked the little hearts, they are a navy bluish color but change in the light. This is such an awesome special thing. My DD loves it, as do I, and I told her she will get to wear it one day when she has a baby (hopefully quite a while from now!!) So, thank you so much to everyone who participated, and thank you so much to ScarletBegonias for orgainizing and creating all of these meaningful pieces of art!
