Recommend your nursing pads.

I have tried a few different brands of nursing pads, some are ok, some I hate. Are there any that you love? Why or why not?

  • I second the Johnson and Johnson! The only ones I will use. You can get them online or babies r us usually has them in store.
  • I love the lansinoh, about the only ones I've used that don't leak!
  • Fuzzy bunz reusable. Comfiest ever. Super absorbable. Pretty cheap on amazon.

  • @ScaredOfCats‌ , do you use the regular and overnight? The boob fairy was overly kind to me X( so I'm wondering if size matters. I have the washable nuk ones but very itchy! The disposable ones are ok but pretty obvious they are in even with a thick nursing bra.

    I use the Johnson and Johnson ones too. But, TBH, I forget to put them on most of the time and then end up putting a finger on each nipple to stop the leak. Even more class over here.

    I'm the queen of this as well, maybe without even thinking about it in front of company none the less.

    I have the bamboobies overnight reusables and they are pretty good.  They are giant though, which is a little awkward with my small boobs, so I have to adjust them a lot to make sure you can't see them through my bra. Also, I soak through them pretty often overnight, but that may just be my crazy boobs. I've also used the Target and Lansinoh disposable ones and both were fine.

    Used lansinoh and target brand, love both. Hate my reusable lansinoh. Yuck.
  • NUK ones are so terrible, I hate them.
    I have an oversupply and the only ones that can handle my boobies are the Johnson & Johnson ones, and they are pretty comfy.
    I have some bamboo washable ones but they don't contain even one letdown.
  • The only problem I have with the ones with stickies on them is the ridiculous coverage at night. My girls are so big that when I roll over nothing is covered unless I consciously re-stick 'em. I like the idea of the large bamboobies for overnight.

  • Bamboobies washable pads. Love them

    Same here. The regular heart shaped ones do fine during the day, and the thick, round overnight pads work great for me at night. They're pretty thick though, and for at least are noticeable during the day. Super comfy option though, no itching.

    Bamboobies have been great. I only have 4 pairs right now and I rotate between them. If for some reason they are all dirty (bc lazy) then I have some disposable lansinoh on hand. I don't mind them either. Eta: to add; I agree that the overnights are GIANT... I really need some of the smaller daytime ones... But I have never soaked through these... I also don't leak too badly, unless T skips a feeding...
    Yeah, this is me exactly -- I use the Target or Lansinoh ones when I've let all 4 pairs of the Bamboobies get dirty.

    Also, I imagine the Bamboobies overnights would work well for most people, but LO has been sleeping through the night most days recently, so I've got about 8 hours of milk leaking out of my boobs by the morning!

  • Agree with everyone that said Lansinoh disposables made me itchy.  I'm another pro- J&J.

    Johnson & Johnson are my favorite! I've tried Nuk, target, Lansinoh, & tomee tippee. J&J hands down. No plasticy-noise, soft, & absorbent!


  • I guess I'm in the minority, but I like the Lansinoh disposable ones--I purchased them in bulk on Amazon for a pretty good price. I have some bamboobies that I've never used--I guess I need to check them out!

    I also like the Lanisoh disposables... I have never had a problem with itchy boobs.

    Same for me - they're my pad of choice for overnight as I've never suffered a leak with these whereas some of the others I may as well not have bothered using for all the use they were
