These Bamboo reusable breast pads are one of our best selling products. Washable breast pads not only save you money versus disposable breast pads but you will also be doing your bit for the environment.
Each pack contains 8 pads, 4 larger for overnight or heavier flow and 4 smaller for regular flow.
We use super soft bamboo for maximum comfort (made with viscose derived from bamboo). This ensures the pads are soft and gentle against your skin. Mama Designs washable breast pads have a double layer of bamboo fleece, with an invisible PU coating that prevents any leaks. These bamboo reusable breast pads will increase absorbency with every wash up to 12 washes (and then stay at this level of absorbency). We recommend washing before use (please do not use fabric conditioner), this will remove the layer of fluff and increase the absorbency of your bamboo breast pads. These pads are super slim which means they are discreet and won’t show through your bra. You may experience a little shrinkage on the first wash. Do not worry! This actually creates an even tighter knit and makes them even more absorbent.
How to use your pads
We can’t say how long before you need to change your pad as everyone is different. We recommend you check your pad at every feed or after a few hours and see how they feel.
Ensure that you wear your pad with the label facing outwards (away from the skin). This means that the waterproofing is away from your breast. This will allow maximum absorbency from the pad.
After you finish feeding
After breastfeeding, you will be pleased to hear that these pads make great makeup removal or cleansing pads! Although customers tell us that their pads have been used on up to three breastfed babies, so you may want to keep them!
Our other breastfeeding products include Mamascarf, a discreet breastfeeding cover and muslin squares.

“Having bought several types of washable breast pads, I found that these were by far the best. They are by no means cheap, but The quality makes up for this. There are eight pads in the box, four larger and four smaller, and they are made of a luxuriously soft bamboo- just the thing when your breasts are at that really sensitive stage while you’re getting used to breastfeeding. They are thinner than other breast pads I have used, so not as prominent in your nursing bra. They also absorb any moisture really well, and dry quickly after washing.” S Hammond

“Bought these, as I knew I will be bf my baby, for as long as she wants. BEST BUY EVER! I was fed up buying disposable breast pads, as it was becoming quite costly. Bought these, I can washed them and wear them again. I use the large ones at night, with a nursing vest, (can’t wear nursing bras at night, I hate wearing a bra at night) and they are still in place!! Very soft and gentle on the skin. Highly recommend, to breastfeeding mums. Wish I knew about them, earlier with my older children. Money well spent!!” Sam

“Absolutely love these pads. They are super soft and slim that you don’t even feel you are wearing them. I love the fact they come in the different sizes and how absorbent they are. These never make me leak on to clothes which is fab! They have also saved me a fortune as I’ve not had to buy disposable ones. Brilliant.” Claire
