Anyone tried those lilypadz silicone breast pads?

And if so, do they work? They sound too good to be true.

I spoke to someone selling them who said you had to make sure you affix them firmly to your breast (they're supposed to squash the nipple and not let it leak). Is this possible to do discreetly when out and about?!

Hi! I started a thread on breast pad a couple of weeks ago, as I was fed up with my dinner plate ones. About as subtle as a sledgehammer. Someone recommended Lily Padz and I got some.

They really are discreet. You'd never know they were there unless you were looking for them. I feel much more confident and can wear lots more clothes and they don't leak. They are re-useable, the sticky side is good, just wash with soap and water at night and allow to dry. Next day they are as good as new.

I'm getting much better at replacing them after a feed in public, a bit tricky at first. Also, they've been wet and sweaty inside during the hot weather (nice )It didn't affect them though.

I wasn't so sure when I first got them, but now I'm tempted to use them all day, every day. So I suppose they must be worth the money. The only thing that stops me, is that I'm a bit worried about it the lack of air-flow, which can't be good. Unless they're made from a gas-permeable plastic of course. And they might be.

A bit long winded, but I hope this helps!
