Milkies vs LilyPadz

rainfallki · August 2011

Do you use either of them? How do you feel about it? Is it useful and does it work as advertised?

Thanks!

Milkies! Great product. I have an oversupply and instead of soaking cloth diapers or towels I collect the milk and can use it. One time I collected over 1 ounce from the side I wasn't nursing from. My supply has leveled out now but I still feel better knowing that I'm not wasting ANY milk.

I got mine from babyhalfoff for $15!

I love my milkies. I have saved over 2 oz a few times. It makes me feel better that I am not wasting any of the milk. It also helps when I manual pump at work so that I am not soaking thru breast pads.

I have the lilypadz and have used them a few times. I will only use them when I have an event where I can still pump or feed regularly. I do not think for women who produce alot of milk that these will be good for the days where you have to miss a feed or pump.

I wanted some Milkies, but decided that they were not a need.

I do have LillyPadz, and wear them whenever I do somewhere dressy. I found that they do get a bit of milk caught inside them so it's wise to have something to soak it up with when you take them off.

I don't wear them all that often because when you take on off you have to hold it of find somewhere clean to put it down. You can't just slip them to the side like a cloth or disposable pad.

Overall I'm pleased with them, and really like having them for the times I'm wearing something that can't go with a bra.
