Lansinoh Breast Pads By Tina Lehman on Dec 03, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

The Lansinoh company makes great products for breastfeeding mothers. Their disposable breast pads are no exception. They are large enough to catch all leaks and soft and absorbable enough to be comfortable if worn for long periods of time.

A drawback of these breast pads is that they are a bit bulky and you can sometimes see the outline of the pad under certain shirts. Recognizing that it's highly ulikely that appearance is high on the priority list of a new mother, this bulk can make you self-conscious. However, I have tried several brands of pads, and have found that all of them are conspicuous so as far as this factor is concerned Lansinoh is still better than most.

The sticky tabs keep the pad well in place in most types of bra. They are invidually wrapped, which seems a bit of a waste to me. So, if you're environmentally minded, this might be frustrating.
