Soothingly Soft Merino Wool Nursing Pads, Style Softline, Extra Thickness, 7 in. Diameter
Description
- LANACare's soothingly soft, reusable nursing pads, in organic merino wool, were specially designed by a Danish nurse. The pads are made of interwoven wool fibers, making them light-weight and absorptive. Many find them more comfortable than disposables or cotton - wool absorbs the milk, keeping skin dry, and breathes, to maintain comfortable temperature in warmth or cold. These are new mom essentials!
- Most women need only 2-3 pairs for entire nursing period. Wool's self-cleansing properties prolong need for washing. Wool's natural oil, lanolin is activated as the wool absorbs moisture. Wash, on average every couple weeks with lanolin-replenishing woolwash to maintain wool's unique properties.
- Scandinavian midwives have traditionally advised breastfeeding mothers to keep their breasts warm to help prevent plugged ducts. Larger sizes provide gentle, soothing warmth and are intended to fill the entire bra cup. Wool's breathability and temperature-regulating properties maintain a comfortable temperature against skin.
- 7 inch diameter. Cup size DD+ to F or larger. Extra thickness. Sold as set of 2 pads-1 pair. (Take note - these are larger than most women expect! Cup size is a guideline - please choose size based on measurements.)
- Women find these soothing with any soreness associated with breastfeeding, particularly vasospasms. Designed by Danish nurse. Imported by lactation consultant.
Soothingly soft nursing pads made with organic merino wool. Designed by a Danish nurse.
Style Original made with 2 layers of knitted KbT-certified organic merino wool. Style Ekstra has 3rd inner layer of interwoven wool, for extra absorption.
Untreated wool can absorb up to 40% of its weight in moisture, without feeling wet. Once wet, pads feel warm, rather than cold & clammy as with cotton or disposables.
Scandinavian midwives have traditionally advised breastfeeding mothers to keep their breasts warm, to prevent plugged ducts. Larger sizes provide gentle, soothing warmth for this purpose, and are actually less noticeable through clothing, as edge falls further back over covered area.
Wool breathes, to maintain comfortable temperature in warmth or cold.
Wool's natural oil, lanolin, provides self-cleansing properties; for easy care. Wash occasionally, on average every couple weeks, with lanolin-replenishing soap, to maintain hygienic properties.
The woolen pads work well together with lanolin ointment to help promote healing of sores.
Even women who feel they are allergic to wool can often wear these pads - many react to the chemicals used to extract lanolin from the wool; no such chemicals are used on this wool.
Sold as set of 2 pads (one pair).
Available in a variety of sizes and styles to suit each woman's needs.
