I suppose this review won’t mean much as the company is winding down. On a positive note, everything is on clearance, so if you need something from them, now is the time to get it.
Overall Impression
“3 layers of 100% cotton flannel are soft and absorbent, and the fleece backing is waterproof to protect from leaks. Each breast pad is 5″ in diameter…”
These are by far my least favourite nursing pads. They are thick and bulky, and the fabric tends to to stick to my nipples. I’m embarrassed to say that it wasn’t immediately clear to me which side was supposed to face out and I made the mistake of putting the soft fleece (microfiber) against my nipples. That was a painful error. Despite having 3 layers of cotton, they don’t seem to absorb all that well and left me feeling quite wet. Though touted as washer and dryer friendly, they lost their shape with the first wash and dry and have made themselves the least discrete pair of nursing pads that I own. At $8/pair I do not recommend these at all.
