Lansinoh Disposable Nursing Pads 60 Count Box

I really like these a lot better than the other ones I've tried. I like that they are really large and absorbent, and they don't stick to my nipple like the ones by Johnson & Johnson. They also don't show through my shirt at all.I don't use the adhesive because it isn't strong enough to stay in place when I open my nursing bra and it has to get folded down under my breast with the outer material of the bra. It is easier for me to just take the pad out when I nurse and put it back in or replace it if necessary when I'm done. Besides, I never have any problem with it slipping out of place, day or night, anyway.To me, the only thing that would make these better would be if they had a nonslip back like the Gerber NUK Ultra Thin Nursing Pads instead of adhesive. I know that I am one of the few people that doesn't like adhesive - most people wish that the Gerber NUK had it, while I wish that these didn't. I don't know why that is. It might be that mine don't slip out of place because my breasts are larger and/or my bra fits them more snug than most. I'm not sure, but I think the adhesive is more inconvenient and slipping out of place has never been an issue for me, especially with these pads because they are so large. I think it might just be that I have a really good bra which holds them perfectly in place, but is also incompatible with adhesive, because the outer cup material kind of gets tucked under my breast instead of just flapping open.That said, I recommend Gilligan & O'Malley Womens Nursing Sleep Bra (Target), and its great for daytime use too. Its the only kind of nursing bra that I use and slippage of nursing pads is not an issue.

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.)

So I was dead set on using washable nursing pads and got a few different brands to try out. I ended up getting a box of these by accident bc I had included them in my cart with a bunch of other things I wanted to get before baby arrived, and forgot to remove them. Lucky for me! I soon realized that these were, for me at least, the perfect nursing pad. Washable ones were great for a short time but when the milk really started flowing, these were the only pads that would work. They have a sticky back so they stay in place, where as the washable ones would sometime slip out of place during feedings. They are SUPER absorbent, whereas the washable ones I had ended up leaking through after just a short amount of time wearing them. Yes I could have changed the washable ones way more often and avoided that but honestly the majority of the time I was so tired I could barely remember to put them on in the first place. These ones are not noticeable under clothing at all, at least for me. I also wear them with my nursing sports bra when I go workout and they have worked so great I forget I am wearing them. At first I figured I would just use up the box so they wouldn't go to waste but I have continued purchasing these pads ever since and I am several months into breastfeeding. I still switch back and forth, but am so happy with these that I just wanted to put my review out there and say how great they are.

The price is the reason why I bought these also because I read other reviews that people recommended them. I like the fact that it has 2 adhesive spots on the back so they don't shift but I really don't use that anyways so it doesn't work in my favor. (My experience is I'm constantly moving, bending over, nursing! So my top doesn't actually stay in the area I need it to stay at all times and if the pad stays in one place it may not always be on the area I need it to be... ) I am normally a 40 DD and the pad is slightly larger than areoles. I have tried other brands and this one I actually think is slightly rough and uncomfortable. I like the tommee tippee ones best because they actually pull the milk through the pad and it stays soft. Thes kind of absorb the milk and get hard.
