LANACare Soft Pure Woolen Breastfeeding Pads - The Breast Pads Women LOVE!
Every nursing mother wants breastfeeding to be a positive experience for her and her baby. These incredibly soft and soothingly comfortable nursing pads provide the best conditions for successful breastfeeding.
Most women need only 2 pairs for the entire nursing period. When one pair feels wet, let it dry while wearing the second pair. Lanolin's cleansing properties keep the wool fresh and hygienic.
The wool can absorb up to 40% of its weight without feeling wet. When the pads do feel wet, they're warm, not cold and clammy as with cotton or disposable pads.
Your skin is kept dry and able to breathe, allowing sore nipples to heal.
Scandinavian midwives have, for centuries, advised mothers to protect their breasts from wind and cold to prevent plugged ducts and mastitis. Larger sizes give protective coverage over greater a portion of the breast.
When needed, wash by hand in lukewarm water with mild hair shampoo, alternating with LANACare 20% Lanolin-Soap. LANA's lanolin-replenishing soap has a much higher lanolin content than most other wool-washes and will keep your pads feeling soft and soothing. Softline only - before laying pads out to dry, whack them against a hard surface to fluff wool fibers to their original form.

There is a new documentation that shows that putting a newly washed wool nursing pad in the microwave for 2 minutes removes all bacteria!

Which Style and Size Is For Me?
Style
Original - with double layer wool. Sufficient for most women's needs. Dry more quickly than Ekstra.
Ekstra - with felted wool for greater barrier effect and absorption. For women with extra strong "let-down" reflexes or heavy leakage. Larger sizes have felted wool only in area where most needed, to avoid extra bulk in your bra.
XS: Two layers of felted wool; Small & larger: One layer of felted wool sewn between two layers of original wool.
Softline - the same soft, untreated organic wool, but it is mechanically processed using a new, patented method. This process bypasses spinning and knitting of the wool, making SoftLine products an economical choice! Recommended for women with light to moderate milk-leakage.
