Soothingly Soft Merino Wool Nursing Pads, Style Softline, Extra Thickness, 6 in. Diameter

Soothingly soft washable pads made with organic merino wool. Designed by a Danish nurse, these organic wool breast pads were made to be a newborn necessity. Made of KbT-certified organic merino wool, interwoven in a special, patented method. This style "Softline" comes in 2 variations, Regular (1/3 inch thick) and Extra Thickness (5/8 inch). Each is very soft and can easily compressed between thumb and finger Untreated wool can absorb up to 40% of its weight in moisture, without feeling wet. When damp, the pads feel warm, rather than cold and clammy, as with cotton or disposable breast pads. Particularly soothing with vasospasms. Scandinavian midwives have traditionally advised breastfeeding mothers to keep their breasts warm to prevent plugged ducts. Larger sizes provide gentle, soothing warmth for this purpose. Intended to fill the entire bra cup, they are actually less noticeable through clothing. Wool breathes, to maintain comfortable temperature in warmth or cold (including air-conditioned environments). Wool's natural oil, lanolin, provides self-cleansing properties for easy care. Wash occasionally, on average every couple weeks, with lanolin-replenishing soap, to optimize wool's unique properties. The wool pads can be used together with lanolin and other ointments, commonly used in breastfeeding. Even women who feel they are allergic to wool can often wear these pads - many react to the chemicals used to extract lanolin from the wool; no such chemicals are used on this wool. Sold as set of 2 pads (one pair). Available in a variety of sizes and styles to suit each woman's needs.

• UAB LNA-LANACARE
• LANACare's soothingly soft, reusable nursing pads, in organic merino wool, were specially designed by a Danish nurse. The pads are made of interwoven wool fibers, making them light-weight and absorptive. Many find them more comfortable than disposables or cotton - wool absorbs the milk, keeping skin dry, and breathes, to maintain comfortable temperature in warmth or cold. These are new mom essentials!
• Most women need only 2-3 pairs for entire nursing period. Wool's self-cleansing properties prolong need for washing. Wool's natural oil, lanolin is activated as the wool absorbs moisture. Wash, on average every couple weeks with lanolin-replenishing woolwash to maintain wool's unique properties.
