FAQs

How often should I change the washable nursing pads?

It depends on your individual milk flow, but generally, you should change the pads when they feel damp or after 2-4 hours to maintain hygiene and comfort. Always use a fresh, dry pair.

Can I use these pads overnight?

Yes, many mothers find them suitable for overnight use. However, if you experience very heavy leakage at night, you may need to change them if you wake up, or consider using additional protection.

What is the best way to wash the Lansinoh Washable Nursing Pads?

Machine wash them at 40°C (104°F) using a mild detergent. Always use the included washbag to protect them. Lay them flat to air dry; do not tumble dry, iron, or dry clean.

Why can't I use fabric softener or bleach on the pads?

Fabric softener can clog the fibers of the pads, significantly reducing their absorbency. Bleach can damage the delicate fabrics and potentially irritate sensitive skin, so both should be avoided.

Are these pads discreet under clothing?

Yes, the Lansinoh Washable Nursing Pads feature an upgraded contoured, teardrop design that sits naturally against your breast and nipple, making them discreet under most clothing.

What material are the pads made from?

The inner layer, which touches your skin, is made from soft organic bamboo. The absorbent core is microfibre, and the outer layer is waterproof for leak protection.

How many pads are included in a pack?

Each pack of Lansinoh Washable Nursing Pads contains four pads, along with a convenient washbag.

Troubleshooting

Pads feel damp or leak through quickly.

Ensure pads are changed regularly, especially with heavy milk flow. While highly absorbent, all pads have a saturation limit. Consider changing them more frequently or wearing a fresh pair overnight.

Pads feel stiff or less absorbent after washing.

Check your washing routine. Fabric softener can coat the fibers and reduce absorbency, while high heat can damage them. Always machine wash at 40°C, avoid fabric softener, and air dry flat. Bleach can also damage the material.

Pads don't stay in place or bunch up in the bra.

Adjust the pad's position, ensuring the contoured side is sitting flush against your breast. A well-fitting nursing bra is also key to holding the pads securely in place. If your bra is too loose, pads may shift.

Skin irritation or discomfort when wearing pads.

Ensure pads are clean and dry before wearing. If irritation persists, verify that no harsh detergents or fabric softeners were used during washing, as these can leave residues. If problems continue, consult a healthcare professional.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Eco-Friendly: Reusable and washable, reducing environmental impact compared to disposable pads.
Superior Comfort: Soft organic bamboo inner layer is gentle on sensitive skin and tender breasts.
Reliable Leak Protection: Three-layer technology with a waterproof outer layer effectively prevents leaks.
Discreet Fit: Contoured design ensures pads sit naturally and are unnoticeable under clothing.
Cost-Effective Over Time: Though an initial investment, they save money compared to continuous purchases of disposable pads.
Easy to Care For: Machine washable and comes with a washbag for convenience.

Cons

Requires Washing: Users must regularly wash and dry the pads, which adds a step to daily routine.
Initial Cost: Higher upfront cost compared to a single pack of disposable pads.
Care Restrictions: Cannot use fabric softener, bleach, iron, or dry clean, which might require specific washing habits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Placement: Simply place the curved side of a pad against your breast, centering it over your nipple, inside your nursing bra. Ensure the contoured shape fits snugly.

Compatibility

Target Audience: Designed specifically for breastfeeding mothers of all stages, particularly those experiencing milk leakage.
Bra Types: Compatible with most nursing bras and regular bras, thanks to their discreet and contoured design.

Care

Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (104°F). It is recommended to place the pads in the provided washbag to protect them during the wash cycle.
Detergent: Use a mild laundry detergent.
Avoid: Do NOT use fabric softener or bleach, as these can reduce the absorbency of the pads and irritate sensitive skin.
Drying: Lay flat to dry naturally. Do NOT tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. Air drying helps maintain the integrity and absorbency of the materials.
