Item Description
*What Are LilyPadz?
LilyPadz are a revolutionary alternative to traditional nursing pads combining such unique features as: flexibility, breathability, invisibility, and "sticks-to-you-ability".
*How Do LilyPadz Work?
You apply gentle pressure on the nipple to stop breast milk leakage while they are properly in place. Nursing moms have used their fingers for years to apply this pressure during letdown. LilyPadz utilize this prinicple...hands free.
*How Do LilyPadz Stay In Place?
They have a unique and tacky lining so they adhere gently to your skin without the use of any adhesives.
*How Many Pair Do I Need?
Because LilyPadz are not absorbent and work to prevent the leak, there are never saturated pads to exchange. And unlike other reusables, there is no downtime in the laundry either. Washing takes only a few minutes per day and that one pair of LilyPadz is ready to go again - that's why we call them continuously usable instead of reusable! So one pair is enough to last most moms for up to 2 months, although some like the peace of mind of having a spare.
*Are LilyPadz Comfortable?
LilyPadz are made of thin, soft, flexible and breathable silicone they are like a second skin. They protect the nipple from excess moisture, rubbing and sticking as is commonly experienced with cotton pads. Most moms claim they forget they are wearing them.
*What are LilyPadz Made From?
They are manufactured from medical grade silicone rubber compounds.
*I Am Allergic to Latex?
Unlike latex, silicone is a material that is not associated with any allergic reactions. Wash well before use and always be sure to rinse well to avoid soap residues
*How To Clean LilyPadz?
Unlike adhesives that wash away, the tacky lining of LilyPadz is renewed with washing. Wash only with oil free, cream free, and lotion free cleansers. Clarifying shampoos and dish soaps dislodged oils best. Rinse well, shake off the excess water and only air dry in a clean, dust free environment. DO NOT blot dry with a towel. One pair of LilyPadz can last up to 2 months with proper care.
*Will LilyPadz Affect My Milk Suply?
Your milk supply adjusts continuously based on the supply and demand established by both you and your child. So as long as you are feeding or expressing milk regularly, this balance will not be disturbed.
*Can I Use Lily Padz Over Night?
Yes, this has been proven to be one of the most popular
advantages to LilyPadz. Becasue of their self-adhesive lining they can be used without your bra - a sleep luxury for any nursing mother.
*Will LilyPadz Show Under My Clothes?
They go unnoticed under almost any choice of
clothing.
*Can I Still Wear Them When I Plan To Stop Nursing?
LilyPadz can be worn continuously without feeding or
expressing milk. You may experience some discomfort initially as with any weaning situation, but this zero demand triggers your body to regulate its milk supply down and eventually dry up.
