BFing moms...I need breast pad recommendations...
I need superduper absorbent pads for overnight use. I am constantly leaking through the Lansinoh pads...AND i wake up a couple of times a night to change them. I am sick and tired of waking up to a puddle of milk and constantly having to change my sheets. Any suggestions?

WOW....you must have some supply! That's awesome!!
I haven't tried them myself, I always just used the Gerber disposables, but I've heard good things about LilyPadz. Supposedly they're made of silicone and they actually prevent any leakage from happening.

If you leak that much LilyPadz will not work - JMO.

I really like the Medela nursing pads! I've never had a leak so far

I liked Medela pads the best. Lansinoh were okay for me. I used Lily padz too but they never worked well for nighttime.

What about sleeping with a sheet saver under you?
I know when I would bring Ann into bed to nurse, I'd stick one under us in case I fell asleep while nursing and didn't "put everything away"

Re: BFing moms...I need breast pad recommendations...
In the beginning when I had an oversupply, I'd leak through EVERYTHING. It's weird, but I used an ultra thin maxi pad, cut it in half and put a half in each side of the bra. Didn't look so smooth, but got me through the night.
