lilypadz

[fuzzymummy]

Has anyone used lilypadz ? If so what do you think of them ?

[Mojomummy]

yes I am using them, they are FANTASTIC !! I bought mine from ebay - brand new for about £15.

So much better than the awful disposable & also the reusable pads.

They work by holding your nipple in..although I have had one minor leakage, I think that was in the earlier days. DD2 is 11 weeks old & I bought them when she was about 8 days old.

I just wash them in some soap, leave them to dry & then stick 'em on. No more ugly bulges in my bra either

I forgot I bought these, wasn't too keen at first but then I was at the spurting it out like a demented cow stage before, will have to dig them out now milk production has calmed down a bit.

Thought they were fab but leaked.

I had major leakages with DD1 with normal breastpads. I find the disposable pads so itchy or noisy !

Hope the lilypadz are good for you.

[fuzzymummy]

Do they work by pressure to reduce the leakage ? If so can they reduce your milk supply ?

[TortUREoiseChamber]

I bought some hoping they would be great but i just couldn't get them to stay on or not leak!
Lansinoh or tommee tippee breast pads were a god send for me.Fab and no leaking.

I used the lilypadz and they were fantastic, ds is 8 months bow so need to get some more, wish I had known about them with dd, I use them when I am out and about at home I used the minature duvets made of paper we have to stick in our bras. Dont you just love the selling points on the boxes of the breast pads 'so discreet, gently curved so less visible' yeah right until one creeps up out of your bra or if someone brushes past you its as if you are made of paper and are being crumpled! Ooops sorry mini rant over!

[Mojomummy]

no, not reducing my milk supply. DD2 is gaining weight well. I don't always wear them at night & woke up in a milk mountain the other day .

I've got very sticky out nipples & they don't always lie flat on me when they first go on. My bra helps them stay in place & when I remove them to feed, they are alway stuck on quite nicely.
Agree with normal pads shuffling & crunching around, ooh just awful !
