Baby Products Reviews of Medela 100% Cotton Washable Nursing Bra PadsCustomer Review: work well- not sweaty like disposables Summary: 4 Stars
I love these- they are soft and comfy. Disposable ones make me feel gross and sweaty like im wearing a plastic diaper. I have only had occasional leaks on days when I didn't nurse or pump enough, so I simply learned to keep an extra pair around- no big deal. I wash these separately in my mini wonder-washer so that they don't get mixed in with my clothes and lost. I dont really wear tight clothes- but when I do I just wear a heavier bra to cover the lines (not that it really matters who sees im wearing breast pads, everyone looks at the kid these days- not me!)
Customer Review: Heavy leakage Summary: 1 Stars
These pads may be absorbent, but they leak like crazy. When I wear them, I still have large wet stains on my clothes. I fail to see the point of wearing the pads. I suppose they help soak up SOME of the leakage, but I certainly wouldn't trust these to hold back all leakage from coming through to clothing. There doesn't seem to be any waterproof part - both sides are a soft flannel material. I was hoping for something that prevented my bras from getting soaked at every feeding, and these pads did not do that.
Customer Review: Leaky Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these prior to my son being born/before breastfeeding. I started using these in the beginning instead of the dispoables because they are less wasteful. I found these very bulky and would wake up every morning with soaking wet cotton breastpads, bra, and t-shirt. After that, I switched to the disposable medela breastpads a friend gave me to try; they are super thin and very absorbent and only $10 for a month supply (you only need to use two a day, they are that absorbent).
Customer Review: They bunch up after washing. Buy Milk Diapers instead. Summary: 1 Stars
The medela ones bunch up horribly after each wash, so that they're really lumpy and noticeable. I would never buy these again. Try Milk Diapers, especially the 4 layer ones (unless you leak heavily, then I would get the full 5 layers). those stay nicely shaped wash after wash and I will even wear them to work because they're discreet. Unfortunately, Amazon doesn't sell Milk Diapers but look around. I bought them at our hospital's baby boutique. [...]
Customer Review: wrinkle and lose shape Summary: 1 Stars
I have tried 4 other brands and these are the worst. I haven't had any problems with leakage (with this or any other brand) but after 3-4 washes the Medela pads are so wrinkled and have lost their shape that I can't wear them with anything without them showing through. I would not recommend these unless you were going to hand wash them - but who has time with a new babe! Especially, when the other brands are holding up just fine after the same number of washes.
