Product Description
LilyPadz are the revolutionary alternative to traditional nursing pads combining such unique features as flexibility, breathability, invisibility and "sticks-to-you-ability" to provide the kind of leakage protection that every expectant and nursing mother needs. Put that nursing bra away - you can wear LilyPadz without it! Return to activities you thought you couldn't enjoy while nursing - swimming, a leak-free night's sleep, a night on the town in a strapless dress!

 UGH! December 25, 2008
i was so excited for these.... but they leak like crazy and milk pools in them, so when you take it off, you have a ot of milk and nowhere for it to go. great idea... poor execution
 Not worth the money November 13, 2008
I had high hopes for this product. It is great sleeping without a bra but I only used these maybe 5 times and they had significantly lost much of their adhesiveness. I also experience a small amount of discomfort having my nipples pressed inward over several hours. It was enough that I would think twice about if I really wanted to use them at night. I did meticulously follow the cleaning instructions. Luckily, you are able to return them.
extremely disappointed November 4, 2008

I was extremely disappointed with this product in every way. First of all, I bought it so I wouldn't have to spend a lot on disposable breast pads. However, the description doesn't make it clear that they only last two months. If you're going to spend $20 every two months, you might as well buy disposable. Second, they're not dependable against leaks (I'm a DD cup which probably contributes as the problem as the Lilypadz are small so they hardly cover anything). Maybe they would work better on smaller breasts, but my biggest concern is how unhygienic they are. I'm convinced they are a breeding ground for yeast and bacteria, which then makes your baby susceptible, and sets you up for infections. Even though I was very careful and followed all the instructions on cleaning them, at the end of the day they just didn't seem clean enough. I think this is mainly because your nipples get no air, and after nursing, if you don't have time to dry out, they can get milk trapped under the pad. They were also awkward when nursing because I didn't really know where to put it, and I had to fully expose my breast to reapply the pad. And finally, the vacuum created by the pad pulled my breast into a wierd shape that you could see under my clothes.
I bought the product as I thought the concept was really good but in every way it is a waste of money and I'm extremely concerned about the hygiene issue and the problems that could result.
 Nice alternative, but loses it's stickiness October 23, 2008
I have 4 children and I nursed all 4. I just got LilyPadz after the last baby. I like them because you can't see them when you are wearing white or another light colored shirt. Also, they are flat against your skin so you can't tell you have nursing pads on. I also liked using them when I got in the pool and when I had a massage because they suctioned to me.
The downside is that they do lose their stickiness after a little while. You HAVE to wash them daily or they will not stick and have a bad smell. Luckily, I don't have to wear nursing pads for long since I don't have a problem with leaking. So, they are great for a short term. You would definitely need multiple pairs depending on how long you nursed.
Overall, I would purchase them again, because they are the best alternative to traditional nursing pads.
Good only for about a week - NOT WORTH THE $ October 2, 2008

If you only need this product a few times, then they're great.
But the packaging claims they are usable up to 2 months.
C'mon! I've had 3 seperate pairs and each set lasted only a little more than a week before the tackiness had all but disappeared. Washed & cared for them according to manufacturers directions and even called the company for tips.
PROS: (for a BRAND NEW pair)Very comfy, stick well, painless, thin & no bra at night!
CONS: Tackiness DOES NOT LAST! High $$ price for a product that doesn't deliver.
I would recommend for someone using the padz for a wedding or big event, but for daily use you may as well just use a disposable/cotton pad.
