As for which month blue topaz belongs to, it apparently depends on who you ask. LOL it seems every has a different opinion as to whether it Nov or Dec. DS was actually due the beginning of Dec, so I guess it covers both for me :grin: </p> <p>ETA: Congrats on DD2 arriving soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426951 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 00:14:57 +0000 erinpye 2426951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 is diamond<br /> DD2 is amethyst </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426899 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 23:09:42 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2426899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is Emerald! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426798 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 21:16:08 +0000 bisous 2426798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 is emerald. Waiting to see if DD2 will be garnet or amethyst since I am due in a little over a week. :)</p> <p>@AngelicOne: I love London blue topaz and have a right hand ring with that stone! So pretty. I have a December birthday and always though blue topaz was one of my options (don't see it mentioned here, though for Dec!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426413 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 16:06:35 +0000 AngelicOne 2426413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is topaz/citrine. I don't like citrine much so I've been doing London Blue Topaz in jewelry so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426161 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 14:18:47 +0000 PrincessBaby 2426161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1's is blue topaz or turquoise. I love both colors, but for jewelry I prefer blue topaz. I have multiple pieces with the stone. DD2's birthstone is conveniently a diamond:). Which is going to work out well for all parties involved. My husband actually bought me my first diamond earrings for Christmas bc of this... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2426066 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 13:47:31 +0000 MamaG 2426066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lady baltimore: :) I don't love them, but don't hate them either. </p> <p>I'd love to do a family ring.

I haven't seen a lot of pearl rings I'd wear though. :( I'm not a big jewelry person by nature but would choose a ring if anything. Maybe I should consider a necklace?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2425984 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 12:59:51 +0000 pinkcupcake 2425984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amethyst :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2425983 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 12:58:27 +0000 LindsayLou 2425983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter has peridot, for august.

I would probably just pick whatever I thought was prettier.</p> <p>@mediagirl: if I had your choices, I would pick alexandrite. I love those and think it's so cool that they change colors depending on the light. I have one from my grandmother and it can be purple, bluish-green or brown depending on the type of light we're in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2425734 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 11:02:53 +0000 petunia354 2425734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is Tanzanite. I think there are "alternative" stones for most months! I think turquoise is an alternative to tanzanite for December. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-los-birthstone#post-2425726 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 10:59:31 +0000 yellowbird 2425726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd is sapphire, Ds is diamond </p>
