best breastpads?

[Ilovemyboy]

I have just bought the ones from Sainsbury's because they were cheap but they are not absorbant at all and are falling to pieces in my bra. My bra always ends up soaking wet.

Can anyone recommend some other super-absorbant, good value breastpads?

I used Boots own, Tesco own and Lanisoh.
They all worked for me

I always used tommee tippee ones they were thin but bigger than most, super absorbent and didnt shift about too much or bunch up

OOh yes! Forgot about the Tommee Tippee ones

Tesco own brand were the best that I used but I bought some washable ones from boots after getting through hundreds and they were awesome. I had 4 pairs and just used to wash them 2 at a time with DD's clothes every day.

I used to leak a LOT!

Tommee Tippee (sp) were the best I tried. It's a bit like the Always sanitry towels, it's thin, but has got that gel inside that soaks up the moisture. Boots do a similar thing - ultra thin ones, but I found the sticky bit glued itself to my bra, and would stay stuck, even when the rest of the pad was removed.

I used the Avent washable ones and they just went on and on. I did have to use two (or three sometimes) at night, but as they washed so easily it didn't matter.

Tesco own brand I found fine.

I did once try some Nature ones (I think it was) that were all eco-friendly, but they'd printed little acorns or something all over the backing, and it showed through tops like 2 little targets on my chest and shouted 'LOOK! OVER HERE! BREASTS! BREASTFEEDING MOTHER!', so I had to give up with those. My breasts are able to make their presence felt without any help from something like that.

I bought mothercare ones at first, they were useless, neither did they soak anything up, but with certain tops I looked like the famous Madonna coned image!! But then I was in Toys 'R' Us over Christmas and they had Chicco ones one buy one get one free, or two for a fiver or something and they have been great, they soak up everything and you can't see them at all!
