Lansinoh Washable Nursing Pads, Teardrop Contoured Bamboo Viscose pad, Reusable Breast Pads for Every Day and Night use for Breastfeeding Mums, (Pack of 4)

Product Information

When we tested them during a milk-heavy night, they helped wick away any sticky milk and keep our boobs fresh and leak-free. The super soft cotton lining will wick away milk into the absorbent bamboo viscose core, keeping your clothing dry and allowing your skin to breathe. This ultra-soft and absorbent nursing pad has everything a sensitive-skinned mama will need to get breastfeeding started on the right foot.

Bacteria thrive in warm, moist environments, so breast pads can become a breeding ground if you don’t change them frequently.They help soothe and heal sore nipples, and they can be kept in the refrigerator or freezer so they can provide cool relief. They act as a shield to protect clothing from milk leakage, preventing wet spots, and potential stains. While bright colors or bold patterns may seem fun, you’ll want to think about the possibility of them showing through your shirt, especially if you prefer to wear bralettes or thinner bras, or go braless. If you prefer reusable pads, five to six sets should be enough to rotate through, depending on how much you leak and how often you change and wash the pads. They also have a contoured shape for a discreet fit and come individually wrapped for easy access on the go.

Soft and gentle on sore nipples, soak up a lot of leaking when nursing on one side and don't feel damp to touch so can wear all day or all night. Today's Bamboobies are made from ‎rayon from 100 percent bamboo viscose on the inner part of the pad that’s soft against skin, with a cotton layer for absorbency and a polyester outer layer to contain leaks. For instance, if you've opted for reusable pads, you'll want to have enough handy while others are in the wash, so investing a few sets might be wise. If you’re not sure, the box comes with a handy sizing guide on the back to help you choose the pad best suited to your bra size.

They come in handy little woven plastic packs for both convenience and hygiene, making them easy to throw in your handbag or pocket discretely. They’ve gone a bit bobbly after a few cycles of washing/tumble drying but this hasn’t affected comfort. The pads held up through some pretty serious leaking during the day and were even able to cope with a couple of let downs before needing to be changed. You may also want to use a nursing pad, haakaa, or other milk storage option on the opposite breast when your baby is feeding, since letdown can occur at the same time from both breasts.

These nursing pads offer superior absorption during nighttime hours, though at nearly half an inch thick, they may feel bulky for daytime wear. Before your body (and baby) have settled into a solid feeding schedule, your breasts will often release milk without warning (1). They are made up of 3 layers – the first being a fast-wicking polyester outer that claims to carry away any wetness from the skin. Nursing pads will help you go about your normal routine without worry that you have milk stains appearing on your shirt at random times. However, a close contender to rival them are the Tesco ultra slim breast pads, in terms of performance.Despite being heavy-duty, they're surprisingly subtle under clothing and the two adhesive labels means they do. Disposable shouldn’t equal uncomfortable, though, and the Lansinoh Stay Dry Nursing Pads make comfort a priority. Reusable breast pads tend to be thicker than disposables, so use a padded or thicker bra to keep them hidden. Using disposable breast pads for 2–4 weeks while setting your washed, dried reusable breast pads aside to allow the yeast to die off without chemicals. If you end up being a fan of the overnight pads, Medela also makes an “ultra thin” version for daytime use.
