Lansinoh Disposable Nursing Pads 60 Count Box

I purchased several different types of disposable nursing pads before I had my daughter, thinking "how different could they really be?" Boy was I wrong.The Nuk ultra-thin nursing pads were absolutely useless. Sure, they wicked the moisture away from my breast...straight into my nursing bra and onto my tee shirt. Totally not absorbent, and certainly not for use overnight. Maybe if you're the type to never ever leak, they'd work for you. (But then you wouldn't need nursing pads would you?)Compared to the Nuk pads, The First Years nursing pads with lanolin felt super luxurious! Because the Nuk pads did such a poor job absorbing leaked milk, my nipples began to get really sore, so the lanolin in the The First Years pads was a booby-saver! The good: having the lanolin in the pad was very convenient. Also, they're shaped to curve around your breast, which makes them far less visible through your nursing bra. (You can actually see the outline of the Nuk pads through your nursing bra AND your tee shirt!) And they're fairly absorbent. I don't know about overnight though, if you've got a crazy active let-down like me. The bad: I don't always need the lanolin, but since it's already in the pad I've got no choice. Also, the texture of the topmost layer is a little rough, which is the last think you want next to a sore nipple. Still, WAY better than the Nuk.Finally, the Lansinoh pads. Hallelujah! I kept thinking, "how hard can this be!?" The Lansinoh pads are contoured to be discreet underneath your clothes, they absorb an unbelievable amount of milk, and they have adhesive on the back so they don't shift around while you're sleeping. Yes, they are the priciest I've seen, but boy are they worth it. Love these. Love love love these! (Buy the 60 pack because you'll use them and it's a better deal.)

After having 3 babies and breastfeeding each of them I think I had tried every type of nursing pad.....until I came across this one! Nothing is worse than leaking onto your shirt in public. These nursing pads are not only comfortable but extremely reliable.They have adhesive so you can stick them onto your bra or nursing tank. If I had any complaint it would be that sometimes they would lose the stickiness and shift, but this was also after a lot of activity, not a normal day of being around the house. My first two children were easy to breastfeed and my body adjusted quickly to how much milk they needed and how often. My third child was a little more trying. After my milk came in he seemed to have a hard time emptying my breasts. This was fine if I was at home and had time to pump anything remaining, however, if I didn't have time or wasn't at home or somewhere I could pump, I would begin to leak soon after I stopped breastfeeding! These pads never let me down. Never once did I leak past the pad. The best thing about these - they pull any milk away from your breast. You don't feel wet or bothered from leaking. I'd recommend these to ANY mom - even if you aren't breastfeeding after your baby is born, these are perfect for using until your milk has dried up.

these have 2 adhesive strips on the back, a "honeycomb" absorbent surface (as described by lansinoh), and massive holding capacity. it just swells up like a diaper.regarding softness: it feels like a tissue... not puffs, but a regular generic tissue, or like cheap toilet paper that you find in public restrooms. so, depending on how sore and chaffed you are, you could find it soft, or you could find it like sandpaper.regarding dryness: it's definitely helpful if you've got leakage issues. it'll absorb a lot of liquid so you won't have milk-stained clothes, and keeps you pretty dry. when and where the pad is saturated, you'll probably feel some dampness. there's no comparison with the reusable cotton pads, though. with the cotton pads, it's like keeping a wet washcloth next to your skin - and then you have to worry about yeast infections. these probably should be changed if you feel like they're damp, but definitely not as often as you would have to change the cotton ones (if you have leakage issues).regarding "bunching": it really depends on your boob shape, i guess? it doesn't really move around or get bunched up. i wouldn't wear it with a sleep bra and a thin, tight shirt and expect it to look smooth. it's a lot smoother than cotton pads, though. (though again, depending on the cotton pad... and the shape of your ladies)bought this to try it out. went back and got the pack of 4... if the leakage is no longer an issue before i use them up, they're always good for a baby shower gift :)

These pads definitely get the job done, but at a price. As other reviewers have mentioned, the adhesive on the back isn't quite strong enough to keep the pads in place. So, you occasionally end up with the corner of the pad tucked under and the adhesive bound to your skin...ouch! Otherwise, you barely even feel them there and they absorb very well. They also look a little bulky through the built-in bra of a tank top. If you are wearing a thick bra, I don't think that would be a problem.

With my first baby, I was able to use reusable nursing pads, for the most part, without any leakage issues. I had hoped to do the same with my second baby, but my body had other plans. I leaked A LOT and none of the reusable pads could handle the job. So, I turned to disposable pads. These are the best of the three brands that I've tried. They are very comfortable and highly absorbent. Except when they've shifted out of place at night, I've never leaked through them. They are discreet under clothing as well. They are the only disposable nursing pads I will buy. My only complaint with them is that they come with so much packaging! It seems unnecessary that each pad is individually wrapped in plastic. I already feel bad that I'm creating so much waste just with the pads themselves; but then there's all this extra waste that really isn't needed at all.
