How often to change breast pads?

Published by Dailys 2024-03-06

Whether you use disposable or reusable nursing pads, you must replace them at a certain time of day. There are several factors that determine how often nursing pads should be replaced, and we'll discuss them in this article.

 

 

Absorbency

Some breastfeeding mothers prefer to use disposable breast pads to reusable breast nursing pads , Because disposable pads are more absorbent than washable pads.

Washable nursing pads that are made from bamboo or hemp tend to be very absorbent. Some reusable breast pads even become more absorbent with frequent washing. So the more you wash them, the more absorbent they become.

Disposable pads are also made from a variety of materials, including bamboo, cotton, and polyester. So they also have different levels of absorbency.

Therefore, the number of times you will need to change the pads will depend on how much liquid your pads can hold without leaking. When you feel they are too full, change immediately.

 

 

The level of leaking

The amount of milk you leak will determine how often you should change your pads. In the first few weeks after giving birth, milk production is usually high, so you will experience a lot of leakage. At this point, you may need to replace the pads as soon as they start to feel damp. Most nursing pads are designed to draw moisture away from your breasts so you can stay as dry as possible. So if you start to feel wet, the pad is full and may start leaking into your clothing if you don't remove it right away.

 

 

Therefore, the frequency of replacement will depend on how much milk the breast pads can absorb. If you feel wet or uncomfortable when using breast pads , it is better for you to change them just in case they will leaking into your clothes .
