    Interesting. I hate the waste that breast pads create, but the reusable ones are way to bulky. I'll have to read reviews on these. Thanks for sharing!

    Sorry, that's bizarre.   Do you really leak enough that you'd need to save it??   and don't you need to get to the fridge to dump it?

    OMG!  That's awesome!  I have been thinking what a shame it is that I lose that milk from the other side when I have a letdown!!

    Has anyone else found thin reusable nursing pads? That's the only reason I would want these.

    I think that they are totally worth checking out. 

     

    And I'll bite- those of you with other comments- didn't BF'd, right?

    Actually I know for sure that a few of  those with the "other comments" did BF thier children. I BF my first for 14 months and am currently BF'ing my 2nd. I have to agree with some of the above that they seem silly to me. But then again With both children I have not had any issues with premature letdown or leaking when feeding on on side. onw side has started while feeding on the other a couple times but only because I was away from baby for about 6 hours and about to burst both times.

     

    IDK maybe I am just a lucky one and have never had to worry about breast pads?

    I leaked from the other side and could never pump enough, so to me, it seems like a dream come true. ?It was almost painful to know that milk was being wasted. ?I'm honestly surprised that so many of you think it's strange. ?Hmm.

    This seems a bit like the plastic cups to help inverted nipples.  I think they're made by Avent.  I used those in the beginning at night because my nipples where sore and they allowed much better airflow.  They did collect quite a bit of milk but the packaging advised that it wasn't suitable for feeding and should be tossed.  Since these are marketed for saving the milk it must a little different or maybe they advise how frequently to empty them.

     Also, for reusable, thin nursing pads try Lilypadz.  They don't work well in the early weeks if you leak a lot (which I did) but they're very effective once your milk is regulated!

    I don't leak enough for this to be at all worth it to me.  It looks uncomfortable adn I would literally get maybe 3 drops per feeding from the other side. 

     I BF #1 for 1 year, #2 for 3 months and am on # 3 and intend to attempt 1 year again. ;0)

     

    But hey, if you leak a lot, I can see this being wonderful I suppose.

    I think this is a fabulous idea! I have a small milk supply and want to use every ounce of it for my baby. I leak every time I go to work for four short hours.

    I haven't not gone to teh website yet, but I knew exactly what you were talking about!

    I just saw the ad for them in my PG'y magazine I was reading on the plane home yesterday.  I dog eared the page thinking that was SOO cool!

    I too would soak a nursing pad on the opposite side while feeding on the other.  I can't wait to give them a try and see if it actually works!

    Oh I'd definitely use those!!!  I leaked sooo much from my other breast while feeding.  It was sad to see it go to waste! 

    I was shocked too that so many people thought they were strange!  I guess it all depends on how much you leak!  I used to go through 2 pads AND have to change my tank in the middle of the night!
