Has anyone ever used them? I bought them today and then came home so excited... Until I read some reviews on Amazon and now I'm a little nervous!

Anyone?

They are a reusable silicone breast pad. They stick to your boob and are supposed to apply pressure to the nipple to prevent leaking and you can wear them to bed with no bra (which is mainly why I bought them).

My birth class instructor said its best to use washable cotton cloth ones because they are breathable and reduce the risk of mastitis.

Following cuz the reg cloth pads suck

Agreed sassy! And I hate sleeping with a bra on

Love them!!! They are so awesome. Take care of them As directed... u dont leak if there is a good seal, they dont show through ur bra. There reusable with a quick wash. Ur boon doesn't leak when ur nursing on the other side. Love them!

Didn't like them at all.

What didn't you like about them?
I read some ladies said they gave them thrush, which worries me.

Used sparingly is fine.
But they aren't breathable, so you sweat under them, which can lead to yeast growth/thrush.
I wore them for short periods of time every so often, but by no means were they a replacement to breathable nursing pads.
Keep 'em clean too! :)

I used them, but very rarely. Mostly I used cotton reusable/washable ones.

They aren't breathable, and they leak. ?

I had these and never had problems with leaking or rashes or anything. I bought might because my left will leak anywhere up to 3 oz while feeding off the right (but not the other way round) so was getting really weirdly lopsided lol. If you leak, they aren't on right

So I tried them yesterday and my left boob never leaked when feeding on the other side, but my right boob leaked when feeding on the left side. I figured I placed it on wrong so I tried again and same thing. I have flat nipples and I read that it's harder for them to work with flat nipples. :-(
