Lily Padz Reuseable Nursing Pads

Product Information

Babies will likely prefer fabrics that are soft and breathable. You’ll probably appreciate them too since it can get extra hot breastfeeding with a cover on. Reusable pads are typically made of bamboo or cotton, although you'll also find silicone pads, which do more than catch leaks; they also prevent them. Although you may love breastfeeding or chestfeeding your baby, the thought of doing it in public may not thrill you. No matter how confident you are, the thought of pulling out your nipple in front of strangers might be a lot. It may even leave you feeling worried or anxious to feed. Will LilyPadz affect my milk supply? No, milk supply adjusts continuously, based on the supply and demand established by both you and your child. As long as you are feeding or expressing milk regularly, this balance will not be disturbed. However, it comes with its fair share of aches, pains and leakages, which is where the best reusable breast pads come in super handy.

The amount of reusable breast pads you need per day depends entirely on the wearer - you may find that you leak more overnight, than you do during the day, but everybody is different.The innovative LilyPadz ® silicone breast pads effectively prevent the leakage of breast milk by exerting constant, gentle pressure on the nipple. Can I boil my LilyPadz? Every now and then LilyPadz (without the protective shells) can be boiled (max. 1 minute). LilyPadz do not need to be boiled frequently and doing so will shorten the product life! There’s no need to boil LilyPadz for hygiene reasons before the first use. How do I wash my LilyPadz?Simply lather with a degreasing, fragrance-free and pH-neutral washing-up liquid under hot water, rinse well and shake off the water. Afterwards, leave to air dry for a few minutes. With this cleaning method, LilyPadz can be reused for several weeks. Are LilyPadz safe? Yes, LilyPadz are made of pure, gaspermeable silicone, a material that causes no allergic reactions. LilyPadz have not been shown to increase the incidence of mastitis or other complications associated with lactation.

Nursing covers really come down to preference. Because this is all about creating a safe and comfortable space for you and your baby to breastfeed or chestfeed, you’ll want to — first and foremost — find a nursing cover that you both like. Mums usually recommend owning about six breast pads, at first - four for during the day, plus an extra pair for emergencies, or in the wash at any given time. How often do you wash reusable breast pads?If it’s your first time nursing a baby, know that there is a learning curve as you and your baby figure out how to latch and which positions work best for both of you. You will most likely need to be able to see what you’re doing and use both hands to do it. What if I perspire under my LilyPadz? LilyPadz are composed of gas-permeable silicone, which allows them to breathe. Although LilyPadz should not cause you to perspire, if you work up a sweat you will perspire under your LilyPadz as well. The build-up of sweat can dislodge your LilyPadz, so we recommend that they be worn with support in these situations. And any moisture under your LilyPadz should be dabbed off as soon as possible to maintain good tissue health. Reusable: Reusable nursing pads are more cost-effective since you can wear them, wash them, and use them again and again. They're also environmentally friendly, but you'll have to buy several few pairs since you'll need to change them often, and you'll want to have a few pairs handy while others are in the laundry. Disposable, often plastic, breast pads aren't very environmentally friendly compared to long-lasting, budget-friendly reusable breast pads, which can be washed and reused time and time again.
