The Ultimate Washable Nursing Pads – Bamboobies Review and Giveaway
After having Baby Mabel, when I hear the word breastfeeding…I think leaking, lol! Many of you know of my nursing/breastfeeding challenges (if not, click hear to read my post) but still I have been bound and determined to get my little girl breast milk whether it comes from my breasts or a bottle from pumping. Either way, my breasts leak! And as a momma (or soon to be momma), I’m sure you understand.
With leaking comes the question – How do I fix this issue along with being comfortable and not getting those pesky leakage spots through my shirt (how embarrassing!)? The solution = nursing pads. Now, I’ll admit I’ve tried disposable nursing pads but I haven’t truly been happy with them. They do the job, but are bulky (I hate that my boobs looks bumpy with them tucked in my bra), they can be uncomfortable, and they are expensive since you go through them quickly (at least I do). I figured there had to be a better option…and there was: Bamboobies!
Watch my review!
Bamboobies and their signature heart shape!
So…why Bamboobies? This says it all:
| ||
And yep…I agree with all of this! |
I LOVE the fact that Bamboobies are washable and reusable. Not only am I saving money (disposable pads will cost you on average about $270 for 9 months of breastfeeding whereas a pack of 3 regular Bamboobies and 1 pair of Overnights only costs $29!!!), less waste is ending up in the landfills! So I feel pretty ‘green’ about my choice. 😉
Finally, like I said earlier…it’s important for me to feel and look normal while preventing leaks. I’m totally not a fan of nursing pads that make my breasts look lumps or sound crinkly when touched. Take a look at this:

These are cute ^.^
I learned more about the overnight bamboobies which would be perfect for when my son arrives in May!!
I love that it says they are soothing. Disposables are very irritating to my skin and I only wear them when going out of the house.
I like that i would save money and keep trash out of our landfills
I love the shape and that they are eco-friendly! What more could a girl want?
I actually didnt know there was a "Leak proof" layer of material. I thought it was just a bunch of soft stuff that absorbed until the pad was super wet.
Bamboobies have such a unique shape and they would be a great alternative to all the bulky breast pads out there!
There are many reason why I love the Bamboobies. 1 the save money,2 you don't have toxic chemicals touching you skin, 3 they are very cute and lastly I can re-use them. My YouTube name is Waitingnpraying
They were invented by a nursing mother of 3.

There are 3 layers to bamboobies that help prevent leaks and make them very soft. So cool! I just found out I'm pregnant so these would be awesome to have 🙂 Great giveaway

Love the "green" concept! My son is 12 yrs old and I have baby #2 due in 5 weeks, so I'd forgotten about nursing pads 🙁 Yikes! Glad you posted and I read 🙂
Morgan these are great! I am not due till July but I would live to win this giveaway. We are very green and this seems like a perfect option for the green family!
Thanks,

Wow I headed over to the bamboobies site and it seems that they sell a really nice looking nursing cover! It doesn't look like an apron which I really like!
I love how thin they are…not super thick like disposables! I think it's great too that they have the overnight option! It didn't occur to me that they are made of bamboo until I read about the benefits of bamboo on their website. The name "Bamboobies" should have given that away! 🙂
really eco-friendly! I like!!
I love that they aren't bulky!
I love that they are shaped like hearts! Because it's out of love for our little ones that we go through so much 🙂 I will definitely being getting some of these, thank you for sharing your great find! After looking at bamboobies.com I learned that the heart shape is what makes them fit so well without wrinkling.
I love that they are shaped like hearts and are not bulky!
I liked reading about the eco-fabrics. I, too, had major leak issues while nursing and would love to stock up on these before we have another! Thanks for the great giveaway!
I love how they are a heart. Makes it super cute 🙂
I plan to breast feed my next baby due in October , and I def am going to buy these! I would love to win!!! I've heard amazing things about them!
Sorry I never finished what I learned! I absolutely LOVE the fact that they are heart shaped and reusable! Also the fabric sounds so soft!
I love that they are made with bamboo (hence the name)so they are probably super soft, and I love that Bamboobies have not been made with harmful substances!
I'd love to win….I'll be breastfeeding when our little guy is born in May!!
They look so soft and comfortable.
My son will be 8 months tomorrow and can you believe I still leak sometimes o_O. Usually overnight when he (thankfully!) sleep trough the night without a feeding! These look so cute…and i can use them for #2 🙂
I love my Bamboobies. I leak so much I need some more!
Great Giveaway! We are trying to become a more eco-friendly family before TTCing and these will fit right in!
I learned that these are the softest, most absorbent, and most of all discreet breast pads.
I have some already, and they are so soft!!! I can't wait to use them with my Baby Boy, and I have learned that they are also much thinner than any others I have seen!! Love Love Love them!!
These are perfect for me we are cloth diapering as well. So this would make me feel so much better than put the disposables in a landfill somewhere.
I love the heart shape design and how much more comfortable im sure they are. What a great idea!
Bamboobies are "hidden" under the bra and I like that! Nothing worse than a bumpy boob area!
I love the fact that these are so eco-friendly AND cute!!! I would love to try them!
These look SO comfy! And I love that they're GREEN – great way to set an example for your baby even from a young age! 🙂
I love that it is a washable pad that doesn't leak. The washable ones I've used in the past didn't work since they leaked.
i love love love that they come in hot pink(: yay! haha
I like that they have hemp in them. I know that hemp works really well in my son's cloth diaper.
learned that they have a leak proof layer…nice!

I love that it provides protection against leaking better than disposables. I'm also excited about the fabric. It's sound like it would be less irritating against the nipple 🙂
They are organic
I learned that they don't show through your shirt! I love that. I'm getting ready to breastfeed baby number 2 due in June and I would appreciate less bulk in my bra for the hot summer months:)
I like that it is bamboo, organic cotton and hemp.. all natural fibers.
They are thin and super soft, so not only are they comfortable, but you can't see the outline (unlike the Gerber washable pads I had)!
I learned that they're made from organic cotton & bamboo velour. Natural fibres are very important to me!
I like that they offer a good variety
I love how they are invisible through clothes and how they DON'T leak.
I've been looking at these as I was researching washable nursing pads, and since I've discovered them, I've seen so many rave reviews.
I love that they are heart shaped and reusable! I also love the different colors and that they carry super cute nursing covers as well!
I learned how the shape makes it invisible compared to regular pads!
Learned that they are leak-proof–awesome!
These look so cool! And since i'm having twins, i'm assuming they will come in handy!
Cashmere sweaters! <3
I am doubting I am going to win this give away but IF NOT i am TOTALLY buying some!!!!
These do look super cute and comfortable! That's great that they are so thin!
I can't wait to try bamboobies. I am about 29 weeks preggo now….definitely need these. 🙂
I love that they are made out of organic fabric!
Love that this product contains no harmful chemicals! Made out of bamboo, I can't wait to try them!
i learned that they are soft and comfortable against your skin and not scratchy like some of the disposable ones
