Hello
My name is Ronni, I am a mother of 3, business owner, breastfeeding mother & lover of jewellery!
My Story
My eldest was born in 2009, my second was born is 2010 & my youngest in 2015. After a rather traumatic birth with my first that resulted in an emergency c-section, being only 19 years old I wasn't in the right mind set and honestly, looking back, I wasn't mature enough to understand the benefits of breastfeeding. I thought it was weird & it didn't interest me at all! When my 2nd was born, I didn't even think about breastfeeding. I quite enjoyed the freedom of bottle feeding, I could allow other people to chip in & take some of the burden off me! I appreciate that probably doesn't paint me in the best light but I was young & didn't know any better, it was also exhausting having two children in 17 months at only 19 & 20 years old!
​
When my third was born, I was really torn about breastfeeding, I loved the freedom that bottle feeding gave me, also having 2 children in school, I was thinking bottle feeding would be easier in case my daughter needed feeding and I was on the school run without her. Guilt & indecision plagued me my entire pregnancy! After a lot of research, I found out you could pump your breastmilk! How ingenious I thought, I read nearly every page on the internet about pumping, how to do it, how to store breastmilk etc...in all honesty there wasn't much out there then but I pieced enough together to figure out I could do that. It gave my daughter the breastmilk that I wanted her to have but it meant that I could leave her with other people, allow my husband to do night feeds and give me a little bit of freedom!
I loved pumping, it wasn't the norm and I got lots of odd looks when I talked about it but it was the perfect option for me! I regret not doing it with my sons. Researching so much about pumping and the benefits of breastmilk, it gave me such respect for mothers that breastfeed, the issues with breastfeeding and also the special bond it gives mothers and babies.
​
I have been working with resin for nearly a decade & run multiple businesses that create resin products. I got asked by a few people if I could make breastmilk jewellery over the years, I decided instead of offering it only when asked, that I would make it it's own service! I am so thrilled to me able to offer mothers a way to mark their breastfeeding journey, what ever that may be!
​
I cannot wait to work with you and create you an amazing way to cherish & immortalise your breastfeeding journey!
