Baby Products Reviews of Philips AVENT Washable Nursing Pads, 6 Count
Customer Review: Used for 3 babies - prefer these over disposables.
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes, these may show a little more than disposable pads, but most of the time you're not wearing skin-tight tops while you're breastfeeding. These did not slip around me unlike disposables and were much softer to wear. I never planned that the pads should last all day/night, I tended to change pads at every feeding so I never ended up leaking through these. For "sticking", I had the same problem with some disposables; it happens when you leak and don't change the pad (and it dries, thus the sticking). I preferred buying 2 sets of the washables instead of continually buying disposables and adding to the landfill problem.Customer Review: not that great
Summary: 2 Stars
I used these pads for a few months. I have barely any leakage, and they contain minimal amount of breast milk well. I wouldn't recommend for moderate or heavy milk flow though. The major problem with these is no curvature. They are flat and get dislodged constantly exposing the nipples. I leaked few times on cloths on the street as well at nighttime frequently. Lace on the back doesn't do anything to hold them in place. They are also visible under clothing. After several months of use the surface became rough, so they are becoming very uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend these.Customer Review: THEY LEAK SOMETHING TERRIBLE
Summary: 2 Stars
These breast pads were next to the worst breast pads I tried. I would end up soaking wet after one let-down!! The disposable Avent breast pads were great, I just couldn't use these. The absolute worst breast pads I used were the ones by evenflo. The gel/crystals would come out of the side of the pads and end up everywhere - including all over my son's face. I don't know if that stuff was non-toxic or not, but I just wasn't comfortable with the possibility of my son ingesting all that absorbant gel... The Evenflo pads were definitely the worst.Customer Review: not absorbent, not contoured at all
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought these because they are more environmentally friendly than disposables however they do not absorb much so I always end up changing my shirt because it leaks through. I don't consider myself a heavy-let-downer at all (ie. the disposables never got saturated) so I was very disappointed. They are also very flat. A little contour would be nice, and make more sense because really, who's breasts are totally flat? The only thing I like about these is that they seem to wash well and come with a mesh bag, which is convenient.Customer Review: These are the BEST pads - and I've tried most of them!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am currently breastfeeding my 4th baby and have breastfed my first three children each for over a year. These Avent washable pads are the BEST I've found. They are very absorbent and waterproof. They stay in place due to the lace cover. They do not show with the nursing bra I use - they just need to be placed high enough in the bra. Other washables I've tried either have no outer waterproof barrier or don't have enough absorbancy and therefore leak. I've just bought more Avent pads because they work so well for me!
