Common Questions about Nursing pads
Everything you need to know about how they work, how to wash them, and how many you need
This pack of 8 gives you 4 pairs — enough to rotate through washing. In the early weeks when leaking is most frequent, having 4 clean pairs means you'll always have a dry set ready. If you leak heavily, consider two packs for extra rotation.
Cold gentle wash — machine or hand wash. Wash before first use to activate the bamboo absorbency. Air dry rather than tumble dry to extend their life. A mesh laundry bag keeps them together in the machine.
With proper care, reusable bamboo pads last your full nursing journey and beyond. The bamboo fibres stay soft wash after wash — unlike disposables, they don't degrade with repeated use.
These pads are designed for everyday nursing leaks. For very heavy leaking — particularly in the first weeks when supply is establishing — you may want to change them more frequently or pair with a backup, especially at night.
Yes — bamboo viscose is naturally soft, breathable, and gentle against sensitive skin. OEKO-TEX certified, free from harmful chemicals. If you have cracked or sore nipples, go wire-free and change pads frequently to keep the area as dry as possible.
