They're called lilypadz - they have a website. Not sure if they're a good idea or not? Pressure on the breast could stimulate supply even though www site says it doesn't. Interested to know how you get on with them.

you don't mean the cups/shells do you Misdee cos they leak. If you do, you can get them at boots. Its prob not what you're looking for tho .

Could dye some washable cotton breastpads black or just put in the disposable ones.

I just bought some lilypadz from ebay (new). They are quite comfy and seem to stick well. Not sure about leaking yet but I will let you know.
