Customer Review: Hands down THE best reusable nursing pad
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first heard of wool nursing pads, I thought, "Yowch!" After all, who'd want to put something scratchy like wool on such a tender area? But I heard so many good things about them that I decided to give them a try, and I'm very glad I did!
The merino wool is incredibly soft (not a bit scratchy) and very absorbent. The pads are HUGE and look a bit intimidating when you first see them, but their size is supposed to help prevent plugged ducts by keeping the breasts warm. I find that the size is actually nice and keeps them from leaving little tell-tale circles that show through your shirt, like some smaller pads do.
But the biggest benefit to wool is the lanolin, which keeps you from having to wash the pads every time you wear them. (Of course, you WILL have to wash them -- just not nearly as frequently as other reusable pads.) As one site explains it, "As the wool absorbs moisture, lanolin is converted to lanolin-soap, which has an antibacterial effect." You'll need to use a special wool-friendly soap and occasionally relanolize the pads (you can do this with Lansinoh or other lanolin products). That's a bit of a pain, in my opinion, but definitely worth it to cut down on the washing.
If you're a heavy leaker (like me), you'll definitely want the Ekstra pads. The regular ones are nice, but I found that, at least at the beginning, they just weren't thick enough for me.
