to think Mothercare shouldn't sell packs of 25 breast pads?

I mean, wouldn't they generally work better in multiples of two?

Couldn't they throw in one extra, or indeed take one out?

Can see your point but due to unpredictable leakage times and quantities! i often just changed one at a time so would never have noticed an odd number anyway.

Really you're spending time worrying about this? Look - most people would buy at least two boxes in their breastffeding career giving a total of 50 therefore 25 pairs - happy now?

Do you change both at the same time every time? I never did.

I'm forever leaking through the right but not the left, it is the ones that wrap them in separate packs of 2 that annoy me!

lol yes that is quite funny!

I'm another that had one overachieving boob. It's the smaller of the two and I always felt it was trying to compensate for that...

Well I always change both pads together, and yet am randomly left with one at the end of a box of 40, so I think a box of 25 would suit me fine

I only ever leaked from one breast so it would have suited me fine!

I'm always irritated by them being wrapped individually. I like the ones you can just grab out of the box.

I asked my DP to bring me some downstairs recently and he appeared with 3!

Lol at overachieving boobs and DH's who think you have three, now that is overachieving .

I think mainly I was grumpy because they didn't have my favoured Lansinoh ones in.

Strangely I do have one odd pad in the cupboard, but not sure how as I usually change two together...
