LilyPadz Breastpads
WINNER OF BABY AND TODDLER GEAR GOLD AWARD

These revolutionary non-absorbent self-adhesive soft breathable silicone pads are designed to stop milk flow, and fit smoothly over the nipple. They work by applying a gentle pressure which stops the flow of milk, press on firmly over the (dry) nipple and smoothing the pad over your breast, the self adhesive tackiness of the pad holds it in place even without a bra, or when swimming. Ideal for whenever you want to stop leaking or avoid the look or sogginess of lumpy breast pads, these are the only breast pads you will need. Also useful for smoothing the nipple under clothing, as they are virtually invisible to wear - very important if you hate that round circle showing through a white Tshirt look! May be worn continuously, so you only need the one pair. To wash simply use mild soap and rinse well with water, may be sterilised in boiling water for 3-5 minutes. Package contains one pair.

Healing Wool
Wool has been known for its antibacterial properties - this is due to the lanolin which helps prevent the growth of bacteria. The wool fleece has been chosen from healthy, naturally raised sheep, and carefully cleaned, and retreated with purified lanolin. Lanolin is an organic ester, a natural substance similar to our own sebum, or skin oil, and has natural antibacterial properties. By using a small amount of the wool over sore areas such as nappy rash or sore nipples, the wool effectively protects the damaged area, sooths and keeps the wound moist from within which aids healing and helps prevent scabbing and also helps prevent secondary infections. You may find this product helpful in the treatment of nappy rash, sore or cracked nipples or eczema.

Usage instructions: Put approximately 1 inch of wool on sore parts and change regularly. Used wool can be regenerated 2-3 times when drying in sun-light.

Lunapads
It seems only natural to those choosing cloth nappies to look at cloth menstrual wear too, since disposable pads and tampons create a significant volume of waste when viewed across a woman's fertile years. Many do not like what we hear about the content of disposable pads and there are concerns over the use of tampons too. In addition, disposable pads can be stiff and uncomfortable, and can cause problems with reactions and rashes too - hands up those who got severe 'nappy rash' with post partum loss? I did, I used disposable maternity ones in hospital after the birth of my daughter - couldn't wait to get home to my homemade cloth pads! We usually choose cotton underwear and clothing - why not for our delicate bits too.

We now stock the redesigned Lunapads range, both the Pads and the slimmer Pantyliners, in varying sizes to suit your flow..

Pads

Pads are designed to meet needs ranging from light to very heavy menstrual flow, as well as light or stress incontinence. All Pad styles feature a 2 layer 100% cotton flannel base topped with a central pad made with 1 layer or ultra-thin breathable nylon and 2 layers of 100% cotton fleece, plus ric-rac bands to hold Liners in place.

Pantyliners

Pantyliners are designed to meet needs ranging from daily discharge to very light menstrual flow, and are also popular as backup protection for Sea Pearls or The Mooncup. All Pantyliner styles feature a 2 layer 100% cotton flannel base topped with a central pad made with 2 layers of 100% cotton fleece. Note: Pantyliners are designed to be used on their own, not with Liners.

Each pad comprises an outer, which poppers with a single popper underneath your pants, with an overlapping opening into which you insert one or both of the loose 3 layer terry inserts for absorbency.
