Small but well worth it, January 16, 2011
This review is from: Natural Organic Cotton Washable Nursing Pads-6pk [Baby Product] (Baby Product)
As with cloth diapers, you have to wash and dry these 5-6 times on HOT to get rid of the natural oils in the cotton before they absorb. You also must avoid fabric softeners, which cause repelling.
Apart from the prep needed before first use, these pads are so easy to use. The organic cotton feels so nice, soft and thick. They probably absorb the best of all the reusable pads I have. A couple of them have gotten a little bunched up after months of use. I tend to leak a lot, so I usually double up, using two pads on each side. It doesn’t show up if I use a padded bra. Another option is just to change them during the day. Compared to disposables, which make my breasts all sweaty and smelly from old milk, these pads feel much more comfortable. I’m also glad I don’t have to throw away so much garbage and worry about wrappers, tabs, etc.
My only wish is that they could be a little bigger. These oval-shaped pads are 2 1/2 inches in diameter one way and 2 inches the other way. They move around when I’m laying on my side or during a feeding, causing leakage from the opposite side. I just have to be sure to adjust it. But it’s worth it for the comfort, absorbency, the money saved, and most of all – the pollution and chemicals avoided.

useless for me,
March 6, 2013
This review is from: Natural Organic Cotton Washable Nursing Pads-6pk [Baby Product] (Baby Product)
These are soft, washable and reusable but I felt wet right away and soaked right through to my clothes. The cheap disposables are much more absorbent. They actually gel and leave me feeling dry and no matter how full they get, they never soak through my clothes.

Not leak proof!,
October 12, 2012
This review is from: Natural Organic Cotton Washable Nursing Pads-6pk [Baby Product] (Baby Product)
I bought these with hope that I could cut down on my disposable usage. Although they are quite soft, they do not retain my milk leakage at all. Once I feel my milk let down, I notice that it goes straight through the pad! Does not spread out at all.
I might try another brand, but to play it safe, I’ll keep the disposables.
