Any charm you pick will be adorned with a crystal or a gemstone, to match the beads. If you pick the teardrop crystal (#27) I will match it to the colour of the beads. If you are not pregnant, I suggest measuring your waist and using that as the strand length. The beads will have an extender chain to allow you to adjust their positioning by several more inches. You could also wear the beads lower on your belly for a sensual touch. Send me the measurement in Note to Seller when ordering. If you are pregnant, I suggest measuring wherever you would like the beads to lie on the belly and using that as the strand length. If you are early on in pregnancy, let me know and I can put in a longer extender chain to ensure you can wear the beads as your belly grows. Send me the measurement in Note to Seller when ordering. I can make customizations - if you need a different size, no chain, longer chain, a different colour combination, please send me a note. Please note that the item will differ slightly from the photo, as each strand is custom-created to the desired length. Please allow 2-3 days for the completion of the strand.
