TL Care Nursing Pads Made with Organic Cotton - Soft, Breathable, Absorbent & Washable, Natural Color, 6 Count

Live the material so soft and durable

Great feel and washable

These pads are great, and so much better than the disposable kind. I bought a set of six a week after I started breastfeeding and I'm finally buying a second set a year later so I will have enough to make it through a whole week without doing laundry. Why didn't I think of that earlier? A friend had recommended the disposable breast pads, but after wearing them just a couple of times, my girls were chaffed and cracking. Once I switched to these cotton pads, I never had that problem again. You can throw out the lanolin creams. It is true that they are thick, but you can't see them through a padding nursing bra. You can see them through a sleep bra and thin pajama top, but it's better than seeing the girls standing at attention and it's better than the disposable kind that look all crinkly (like you did a bad stuff job in junior high). I have never had these pads leak during the day. At the beginning when you are overproducing milk, I woke up a couple of times with the pads soaked through when the baby started sleeping longer through the night. I'm convinced that nothing would have contained that amount of leakage. The good news was that the leakage was contained to the pads. I switched them out and went back to bed. As for laundering, I have had my first set for over a year and they look like brand new. I wash them with my baby's clothes and when I take them out of the washer, I pull them flat because they can get a bit stuck together as with any other cotton fabric. I put them in the dryer and they come out flat and round every time. They are very easy to care for. I would recommend these to anyone.Pros:Soft (helps prevent chaffing)Inexpensive (don't have to continually buy disposable pads)Looks better under clothes than disposable padsCons:I really can't think of any

I've used these for the past 3 weeks and have been pleased. I am not a heavy leaker, so I can't comment on how well they would work in that scenario, but they have been good for my light to moderate leaking, as well as for catching any drips and messes during the feeding process, which I always seem to have. I found them to be much softer against the sensitive skin than the disposable pads I tried. They wash up nicely (no fraying or pilling yet), but did shrink a bit in the dryer, which I haven't found to be a problem. I ordered two sets of six. Somehow I didn't see that there was the option to save a few bucks by ordering a set of 12; maybe that option wasn't there at the time I ordered. I've found having 12 ( 6 pairs) to be plenty for me. I am never without clean ones ready to go. They are made in China, which may an important factor to some.

I have bought these again several times as after so much use with a baby it is nice to have a refresh for another season of nursing. But these are the best, so comfortable and easy to wash and they don't get milk stuck in any seams

I wish I could say that I loved these. For the price I guess they're ok. Let me just talk as a veteran nursing mom and as a peer support person.. you can find better nursing pads. If you're one that leaks during letdown or any time, these will not work well for you. Here's why.They're made of what feels like 2 layers of cotton fleece type fabric. Which is great, don't get me wrong. Two layers by logic should absorb quite a bit. The problem is that the liquid from milk is not stopped by a waterproof or water resistant layer such as polar fleece, wool, or PUL. So the liquid simply leaks through with little effort. The fabric also saturates easily and soaks quickly. Because there isn't a stay dry later such as suede cloth or microfleece, you will feel the moisture against your skin. This means it's a breeding ground for bacteria and yeast. The stay dry layer isn't a huge deal if you're able to change them frequently or if you're not a big leaker. I have 4 kids and we're out a lot, and I work. So changing isn't always an option when we're on the go.Anyway.. a good budget pad for lesser leakers. They seem comfortable and they're not a bad size. They do tend to bunch up and might be a bit on the bulky side for some. I went back to using my Knickernappies brand pads.

I've been incredibly happy with these nursing pads so far (I have a 4-month-old): For the past month I've been pumping at work 4 days a week, and my LO has been sleeping 6 - 7 hour stretches (hallelujah!), so my pads have been put to the test at night. In the beginning I used disposable pads, but stopped as they were uncomfortable, not as absorbent as I needed, and would bunch up when I let my bra flaps down to nurse (I wear unlined nursing bras and am a 34C right now). I first tried bamboosies because of the great reviews, but they were far too thin for me, and the silky material on one side made them not stay in place. Then, the TL Care pads showed up as an add-on item and I thought, "Why not?"I love them. They are super soft, which has been really important because of the stress on my nipples from all the pumping, and they are very discrete underneath my work attire, so I don't worry about looking lumpy. They stay in place great with the type of bras I wear, and I love that they're the same material on both sides - if I leak a little and it starts to feel damp, I can flip it over so my boobs not constantly exposed to moisture. And they are very absorbent. I haven't had any problems during the day. The only time I've soaked all the way through has been during a 7-hour stretch w/out nursing at night, but even then, my bra has stayed dry.These are a great value. I wish I had known about them from the beginning.

I originally was bummed that these did not have a waterproof backing and so they do leak. However, after two months of wearing milk pads, I find these are my favorite because they are breathable making them much more comfortable than waterproof ones. I highly recommend getting these, your nipples will thank you!

These pads are great. Soft and absorbent. I will be repurchase another set of these so I don't have to do laundry as often. Highly recommend.

I love this! So comfy

Muy recomendable opción de protectores para piel lastimada o sensible... 100% tela que no roza al contacto con la piel y es fresca

Comfortable

Empezaré con lo que me gustó:Son súper suavecitos y se acomodan bien.Lo que no me gustó:Son bastante gruesos, por lo que se ven a través de la ropa.No son lo suficientemente absorbentes para un "flujo abundante". Mientras que se establece el ritmo de la lactancia no lo recomiendo.Le pongo 3, porque creo que sí funcionarían bien para quien no "fugue" tanta leche entre tomas o durante éstas.
