Review on 🀱 Johnson's Disposable Nursing Pads: Natural Cotton, Contoured Shape - 60 Ct by Sharon Payne

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Small and lumpy best when breastfeeding

I've been breastfeeding for 8 months now. The first few years (no sticky back) sold out than the ones I usually buy, so I went out to buy them. If you used lanolin (purple box) or when you were young and have large boobs (I only have a D if I feed Bs if not) I don't recommend these. They have a rather small diameter and a strange shape of the nipple indentation. Leaves a nice nipple shape on the outside of the shirt. They don't stay put either. At first I thought it was my fault for not using the adhesive backing. I wanted to go somewhere good and decided I needed them to stay in place so I used a sticky back. They didn't stay put. I use a combination of nursing tops, tank tops with built-in bras, and nursing bras for breastfeeding. I've had them for 3 months now and I have yet to find something to hold them in place. I often have to fish them out from under my chest. If you manage to put them back in place before feeding, clumps will form as they leak. I don't know what material is used for absorption, but it doesn't scatter clumps. They're thicker than other pads, but I couldn't tell from the outside of my shirt, so it's not that. For me that's really important. Now for some positive aspects. Milk seems to be enough. Difficult to say as I have to change the pads at almost every feeding but they only leak a little at night which is comparable to the first year pads I have, they are a larger diameter. They are very soft. I with all the pads were so soft. They don't itch at all, I can hardly tell they are. However, this circumstance is not worth it when I have a nice milk stain on my shirt, because the pad that had to be tapped is now under my breast.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • I don't remember but something happened
