Bamboobies Overnight Washable Nursing Pads

I am so excited that I got sick of my washable cotton nursing pads!!! Buying the Bamboobies overnight nursing pads was the best breastfeeding accessory decision I've made. I bought them two weeks ago after months using some organic cotton pads (my baby is only just 2 months, but I started leaking a couple of months before she was born).I bought 12 cotton pads and was doing a load of laundry every other day to keep up with the leakage, especially after baby was born and I had so much leakage that I had to wash both clothes AND sheets regularly due to leakage. Even with all that washing, I often still didn't have enough pads to get me through the two days. Also, the cotton pads have become worn and have pills on them, and they don't seem to wash as well - they seem to have hard milk stains that won't wash out.I decided to pay a bit more for some Bamboobies overnight pads - they are INCREDIBLE! They are so, so soft, and they are so absorbent that I can't even tell when they are wet, other than they are heavier. I'd initially been worried that they were one-sided, and that they couldn't be reversed mid-wear in order to find a dry side, but that isn't necessary with these! I wear them through the whole night, without any leakage onto the sheets or my clothes. They don't stick to my nipples when I take them off, and they don't get cold when they are wet. In the time that I would've used probably both sides of 2 or 3 sets of cotton pads and still been uncomfortable, I can use the one pair of Bamboozies all through the night and even in to the morning, without feeling itchy or uncomfortable. I LOVE THEM and I even wear these ones during the day now as well. The size is perfect - they are big enough that I can wear them with a normal sports bra for nursing, without the pads getting folded or lost when I am nursing or sleeping.I am so impressed. I definitely highly recommended these nursing pads!!

10/10 recommend to all breastfeeding moms out there. They may seem big but they are perfect, trust me! I wish I got them sooner because they are so much better than the disposable ones. These overnight nursing pads are easy to wash in any load, don’t shrink, and are super absorbent. They aren’t super thick - I’ve worn them in my night beast-feeding bras and my day time breastfeeding bras and you can’t tell you have them in (depending on your bra brand probably). I love the color (blue and cream) but I don’t think the color really matters so much because they are not seen really. I have had mine for 9 months and they have held up with no seams loose or holes or any wear and tear. Super easy to slid into your bra and out and they are so soft so once in you can’t even feel them! Get these if you’re thinking about breastfeeding! They are a must!

I love these so much. I am a new Mommy, and I quickly discovered that I am a LEAKER! I hated the idea of using disposable nursing pads, and I was thrilled when I found these! I bought a set from Target first because I needed them ASAP, so I used their pickup option, added some more prenatal vitamins and sanitary pads, and sent my husband over to pick them all up for me while I stayed home on the couch recovering from my c-section. After I tried these out I KNEW I needed more. The price is better buying them on Amazon. Definitely buy them here, unless you need them right this second (in which case, buy a set from Target, and then come here and buy additional sets!!!)They are easy to wash - I put them in my laundry bra bag and throw them in when I wash baby clothes (or my clothes or a combination of my clothes and the baby’s clothes). I take them out of the bra bag leave them loose when I put them in the dryer, and they are still perfect. I do avoid putting them with jeans though (just to be extra safe). I recommend having at least two boxes of these nursing pads, so that if you aren’t doing laundry as often (because early weeks of parenting is overwhelming and exhausting) you won’t have to worry about being out of clean nursing pads.These pads soak up a lot and are very comfortable!! I never go anywhere without wearing them. I’m 12 weeks pp and my supply has pretty much regulated, so I don’t leak as much now. But I still don’t chance it - especially through the night (my son sleeps a solid 7-9 hours, so I am VERY ready for some nursing relief first thing in the morning).

I purchased three brands of reusable breast pads (Itzy Ritzie Glitzy Gals, Love My, and Bamboobies in order to compare. The disposable pads irritate my skin and are not cost effective if you are breastfeeding long-term, so I was looking for another option. Here are my thoughts. Please note, I am large busted (40 DD) and have a forceful letdown, so those things are considered in my reviews.Itzy Ritzy Glitzy Gals - These are a bamboo rayon on the side that touches your skin, and appear to be a cotton blend on the "pretty" side. These were the smallest in diameter of the three I tried (they aren't tiny, just small in comparison to the others). They didn't last as long during the day and I experienced some leaks (i.e. saturation through the pad, and my bra / shirt) with this brand. I think this is in part to the fabric on the "pretty side" not being a very moisture-blocking fabric, plus they are a little smaller than my other ones. I also experienced some "sticking" of the fabric to my nipple if I didn't change the pad quickly before the "leaked" milk started to dry. This was a little uncomfortable when removing the pad. If you don't have a lot of leakage or a heavy letdown, these may be ok for you, but I only use them around the house when I am not worried about leaks. I gave them 3 stars - they are fine but not my go-to. They do have the prettiest prints of the three I tried if you care about that. If your bra is not padded, the line around the pad may be slightly visible. Side note - these were much less expensive at my local Motherhood store than on Amazon.Love My - These have the same bamboo rayon "skin side" as Itzy Ritzy but are larger and have a waterproof backing. They may be too large and bulky for small busted ladies but were great for me. They also come with a storage pouch which is nice (I put it in my diaper bag so my clean ones aren't floating loose). I have the same experience with these sticking a bit if my milk leaks and the starts to dry, but have not had any milk leak all the way through the pad (and sometimes they are pretty saturated). If your bra is not padded, the line around this pad may be visible. I really like these and gave them 4 stars - I would have given them 5 stars if the bamboo rayon fabric didn't stick to me. These were the least expensive per pair of the brands I tried. If you can't afford bamboobies these are a great option.Bamboobies - I got a combo pack with regular and overnight pads at my local boutique, plus more overnights on Amazon. These have a super soft bamboo velour (vs the rayon "washcloth" material of the other two) on the skin side and a waterproof backing. I have had zero leaks with these. The heart shape of the regular pads seems weird but it is the least visible as far as lines showing through your bra. I put them in pointed end up. The overnights hold a TON without leaking. They are round vs the heart shape, and thicker, so may show through your bra if it's not padded. These were my favorite brand and did not stick to my nipples when the milk started to dry. 5 stars, but on the pricey side - it they were less expensive I would have bought lots more (although if they were less expensive the quality might not be what it is).Regardless of the brand, I do recommend getting several pairs if you leak a lot - I change mine every few hours so I always have several pairs in the wash.

PROS:1. Soft - Unlike many disposable or cotton nursing pads, these are so soft that even when I had cracked, bleeding nipples, they never stuck to these pads. Trust me when I tell you that is a big deal! So, my nipples healed better and faster. (Cracked nipples are not the norm for nursing mothers. I recommend that anyone experiencing ANY problems with breastfeeding visit www.kellymom.com or seek advice from a lactation consultant through your hospital or OBGYN - breastfeeding your baby is so worth it!)2. Absorbent - I produce a LOT of milk, and these pads catch and hold every drop. Cotton and disposable pads would often let the milk slide past, to be soaked up by my bra and shirt.3. Leakproof - I've been using these for 6 weeks straight, and have yet to have them leak.4. Well-made/durable - They hold up extremely well, wash after wash.4. Stay in place - Cotton pads seem to shift, but these only do when I adjust my clothing/flaps/whatever for nursing.CONS:1. Price - Yes, these are definitely a bit more pricey at the onset. However, remember that you are not going to need to replace them as you would disposable pads.2. Color option is limited to light blue - Honestly, I just tried to find something else to round out my list. This is not a big deal. They don't even seem to show through my bras or nursing tanks. But I'd like other color options.Hands down, these are the best nursing pads I've ever used. Yes, they are a bit pricey, but they are worth every penny.

I bought this extra set of the overnight Bamboobies in addition to one of the assortment packs that has three pairs of the hearts and one or two pairs of the overnight ones (can't remember exactly how many). In hindsight I can say that for me two of the assortment packs would have sufficed rather than buying the full set of overnighters, but I didn't know what to expect since this is my first time nursing.The overnighters are nice and soft and feel a little more plush than the heart shaped ones. As a consequence that means that they are bulkier and don't lie as flat underneath your nursing bra and tops, but that's not as much of a concern as you'd expect. I was worried about details like this before baby but have since had too many other things to worry about, not to mention all the impacts on your appearance that motherhood brings differently for each woman. All that to say, no, they don't lie flat, but that's a minor concern in light of their comfort and great absorbency. You will appreciate that softness and bulk since it can help cradle tender and sore nipples!I especially like the larger coverage they provide since the hearts have more of a tendency to slip out of place and leave your nipple rubbing either on the edge of the heart or directly against your nursing bra or both. That's why for me the assortment pack worked out better than just the overnighters so that I could have the best of both worlds and just decide which to wear when.I wish Bamboobies made nursing bras with these already sewn into the cup as that would make using them in public a lot easier. (Maybe they do make them, and I'm just not aware. Love this product and company enough that would happily buy if they did!) Trying to un/snap bra one handed makes it hard to adjust nursing pad on top of everything else. Again, this is my first time nursing so maybe will improve with time. Just thought that was a consideration worth passing on to other new moms.These wash and dry like a dream. I toss them in a delicates sack with my nursing bras. They have held up both in absorbency and softness over several months of washing several times a week! Keep in mind that bamboo fibers will occasionally transfer to your nipple even after multiple washings. It bothers me a little that those fibers end up in baby's mouth, but this has not kept me from using them. Baby doesn't seem to notice, and it hasn't impacted his latch or nursing. Just another thing to keep in mind.Overall, definitely a product that I recommend and will continue to use as I nurse. I found the assortment pack to be the best bet for me as it includes just a few of the overnighters.

These were an absolute game changer for me. I've been using them for the past ~8 months or so even though I probably don't need to anymore. With my first baby I didn't even know nursing pads existed. I just leaked for the first few months. It was horrible. With my second baby I discovered the disposable nursing pads and was blown away but they started to add up in cost, which is why I searched for reusable ones. I love these ones so much. I bought one pack and they've been super great. They don't show any signs of wear and tear or anything. I just put them in the wash and then reuse them. In the newborn phase I leak a lot but not super heavily. I never had issues with any milk leaking through these at all. Sizing-wise they are pretty huge for me (but I'm a bit small so I think that is to be expected). I love them so much though, I think this is one of the best things I bought postpartum.

I originally bought the Nuk and Medela washable nursing pads from Target because they were cheap and easy to pick up extras. I also bought Lanolin cream nearly weekly to protect my nipples, I thought from being dried out due to nursing, but it turns out from the incredibly dry and rough nursing pads. Then I bought the Bamboobies and have not needed the Lanolin since and it has been 2 and a half weeks. They are so soft!I soaked through my nursing pads almost hourly the first few weeks and was getting sick of wet shirts and smelling like rotten milk. That is why I bought the overnight washable Bamboobies. Around the third night I wore the Bamboobies, I overproduced and overslept and my nursing pads were completely soaked, but my nightshirt wasn't. I also have had a couple times during the day where my son has slept longer and I have gotten busy with something and never has my shirt gotten wet.For me, it was worth the extra money (other nursing pads I bought were about $2 per pair, but the Lanolin was $10 per week and a half) to stay dry and feel comfortable. The only downside is that they are noticeable in tighter shirts, but since they are supposed to be for overnight, that hardly seems like a con. Also, they are not noticeable in looser shirts. I am planning on getting a few of the regular pairs so that I can wear those with tighter shirts. I dry mine flat instead of in the dryer and they do take a day or so to dry that way, but I easily make due with the four pairs as long as I wash them often.

These are fab- I actually wore them during the day aswell as I liked the round shape & excellent absorbency. Washed and dried perfectly, so soft to wear, would buy again

Respecto al tiempo de entrega, no tuvo ninguna demora, el empaque sin daños. Los compramos para mi esposa ya qué durante la noche se tenia que cambiar de playera más de una vez por los derrames de leche. Ella está muy feliz con ellos, son muy suaves, no le lastiman o rozan y absorben a la perfección. Los recomendamos al 100%

Great for overnight but a bit big to wear in the day time... nearly always caught my leaks!

The only washable one that worked . Even over night works very well

Hab mir mehr erhofft.Sie halten ansich dicht, aber die Oberfläche ist nach kurzer Zeit immer feucht, was man aber nicht sofort merkt . Somit ist auch die Brust feucht. Ich muss sie mehrmals täglich wechseln und somit ständig waschen . Das ist schon nervig. Ich hänge gehofft das sie wenigstens einen halben Tag reichen bis zum wechseln. Aber 3-4x muss ich sie wechseln...
