    While these nursing pads are fairly absorbent, the adhesive isn’t very great. While I don’t want a product that is harsh on the fabric of my clothes, I also don’t want the pads slipping down and leaving me to soak my clothing. Looking for another option.


  • A solid disposable option

    2.5 out of 5

    Started with these until I got set up with reusable. As far as disposables go, these are a solid, absorbent option. If you have a lot of let down you will go through quite a few though.


  • Good comfortable nursing pads

    4.5 out of 5

    Good nursing pads. Definitely contain any leakage and stick to inside of bra well. Aren’t too thick where they are annoying.
    There are 50 in a box and use biodegradable packaging which is a plus.


  • Packaging issue

    3.5 out of 5

    They are good and does the job but they are packed individually that is one pad in one pack inside the box so 50 means 25 pairs which is a little misleading information. Rest they are awesome. Breast leakage is witnessed in early stages only and can be used infact its a must have in the beginning.


  • The best

    5 out of 5

    These are the best nursing pads I have used! They are so comfortable to wear, I don’t even notice them in my bra. Very absorbent as well.


  • Absorbent

    5 out of 5

    I’ve found these breast pads to be absorbent and keep me nice and dry especially overnight when baby first started to sleep for longer periods


  • Comfortable and absorbent

    4.5 out of 5

    Soft comfortable product with great absorbency


  • Great product all around

    5 out of 5

    Love the feel and fit of these breast pads. The absorbancy is also great. I have a heavy letdown at time and back to work means time away from bub means I need a reliable breastpad and have never had leaks with these.


  • My favourite disposable breast pads

    4.5 out of 5

    These were given to me as a baby shower gift and they were by far the best disposable breast pads i used. They were so comfy, great absorption and really strong when sticking them to my bra. They hardly moved. Only thing is i needed to change these more often than other pads otherwise i would leak through


  • Good product

    3.5 out of 5

    I enjoyed using these pads, no leakage, they were super absorbent and they stayed in place! Out of the few different brand I tried these were the best by far


  • No leaks

    5 out of 5

    a very good nursing pad to have, it never on me (however I didn’t have the biggest supply), I like that it stuck well to my bra. Good quality.


  • So soft

    3.5 out of 5

    I have used these breast pads for my entire breastfeeding career. I have found them to be super soft and absorbent. My only thought is that the packaging is sometimes a little hard to open and can easily catch on the edge of the pad, tearing it.


  • Best Breast Pads on the Market!

    5 out of 5

    I got these as they were on special really cheap. Used the whole box and loved them. Used a different brand second time around as these weren’t available and almost e fed up with mastitis because the absorbency wasn’t as good. Went back to these and had no troubles what so ever. They’re a good size and they soak up heapssssss of milk. Really good for those early days when your milk first comes in!


  • Sticky nursing pad

    4 out of 5

    When I tried these I fou d them to be the best for sticking to your clothes and barely moving around. They were fairly absorbent but if you leak alot they need to be changed alot


  • Great product

    4.5 out of 5

    These bamboo pads worked great, helped the leakage and not coming through on my clothes, very soft and easy to use, would use the next time.


  • Soft and work well

    4 out of 5

    I used these when I was breastfeeding my son and they are so much softer than other ones I tried and they stopped all the leaks coming through my shirts.


  • Great product

    4 out of 5

    I quite like these. They are comfortable and have a nice shape. They hold a decent amount of liquid. The only thing I dont like is they have 2 stickers on the back and when you’re trying to discretely pop one in your bra having 2 stickers to peel off is a bit more awkward.


  • Essential item for nursing mums

    5 out of 5

    I was using reusable nursing pads initially but I was leaking so much and was fed up with getting my top wet so often so I used these and I’m so impressed with how much liquid it can hold and that you don’t feel wet either.


  • Handy product

    4 out of 5

    I much preferred the reusable ones but these were my go to when I was out and about and didn’t need to stress about them falling out. They never leaked and they were soft on the skin.


  • Not a favourite for me

    3 out of 5

    Unfortunately I didn’t love these. They didn’t feel that great on my skin and didn’t do well with my heavy leakage. I think for anyone who only leaks a bit they would be ok but for me there were others that felt nicer against my skin and that handled my let down and leakage better.


  • Great product

    5 out of 5

    I have used a few different brands of nursing pads & found the bamboo new beginnings breast pads very absorbent & I don’t leak at all.


  • The perfect shape

    4.5 out of 5

    I love these they are the perfect shape. I used these with my second child and had a lot of milk but when using these I had no leaks.


  • So comfortable

    5 out of 5

    You can honestly tell the difference with these pads, the comfort of having breathable space for the goods is second to none. Best ones on the market by far.


  • Super soft

    5 out of 5

    These are so soft and gentle.
    They are super absorbent and pretty affordable, too.
    I always grab these when I am out to keep stocked up.
    Would absolutely recommend.


  • Lovely, soft, absorbent!

    5 out of 5

    These are so soft and lovely on the skin. Excellent absorbency and the sticky strips help keep them in place. Would definitely buy these again.


  • Best pads

    5 out of 5

    I love love love these nursing pads. They are so soft and thin and absorbent. They don’t cause any nipple irritation and are easy to wear


  • Best breastpads on the market

    5 out of 5

    These breastpads are soft and comfortable to wear, they don’t irritate your skin and have a great plastic backing to reduce any leaking.


  • Good nursing pads

    4 out of 5

    These nursing pads were a lifesaver for me first few weeks of breastfeeding. The only problem I’ve ever had with them was that they were a bit itchy sometimes..


  • These worked great

    4.5 out of 5

    When I was still breastfeeding they were soft and felt great they worked really well and I would try to buy these on sale but they were an essential


  • Favourite disposable breast pad

    5 out of 5

    Love that it was large enough to cover my nipple other brands I found were smaller and I felt like I’d leak if I didn’t change them more often.
    These absorb wonderfully! I’ll be buying again!! Great value for money.


  • The best

    5 out of 5

    These are the best I’ve tried and will continue to use for my second pregnancy. I love how soft and absorbent they were without having me feel wet or damp


  • Very comfortable

    4.5 out of 5

    I happily use whatever breastpads are on special but these ones are actually very comfortable. I would happily buy them again if they were on special when I needed some.


  • Most comfortable breastpads ever!

    5 out of 5

    These are my favourite brand of breastpads. With two children I’ve been through many different types – but these I’ve found to be the best quality. They are super soft and absorb breastmilk extremely well (they hold a lot too) the first few days of having a new baby and breast feeding can be hard and painful, but I found using these breast pads very soothing. I could go out without worrying about leaking which was one less thing I had to worry about! Any new mums should definitely give them a go.


  • A great breast pad

    5 out of 5

    A perfect combination of comfort, and affordability. They stick quite well to your bra and don’t have a plasticy feel on your skin. They are nice and absorbent and I have not had any leakages with them.


  • Natural and affordable!

    5 out of 5

    These were the best breast pads I used during pregnancy and I will always use these if I ever have any other children because they are so effective, very comfortable, and extremely soft. I forgot I was wearing them a few times, that’s how comfortable they are to wear! I definitely recommend these breast pads!!! They are averagely priced and are very convenient to find in major supermarkets.


  • Super absorbent, soft and stays in place!

    5 out of 5

    This is my 2nd baby and I’ve tried all the well known brands plus also the supermarket brands but these bamboo ones my absolute favourites. They are the most absorbent of all the brands I’ve used (even in the early months of over supply where I leaked constantly i never felt damp. Often when I changed them I was surprised at the amount that had been absorbed based on the heaviness). They are soft and mould to your breasts and therefore don’t have a crease as other brands do which can be seen under tight or thin clothing). And the adhesive is strong meaning they will not shift around.
    They are unfortunately a bit hard to find so I always buy 2-3 boxes at a time. My local Coles didn’t have any recently and so I bought another brand and I regret not making the effort to find the bamboo ones!


  • Super Absorbent!

    4.5 out of 5

    Essential in the early days when your supply is establishing. I won’t say they were the most comfortable brand but they did absorb the most which was more important to me early on, especially when heading out of the house. They were the cheapest brand at the supermarket too which was a bonus!


  • My choice

    5 out of 5

    I tried a few other brands and these were my favorite . So comfortable and good absobancy . Sometimes they are hard to find it coles so I always buy multiples when I find them .


  • was ok

    3.5 out of 5

    it doesn’t work as well as other breast pads


  • Great product

    5 out of 5

    Non expensive & best product I had used


  • Essential in the beginning.

    3 out of 5

    I used these when I first started breastfeeding and I was leaking. But over time I found that i didn’t need them anymore. I actually found them to be rather uncomfortable (though essential) in my bra.


  • Perfect for me

    4 out of 5

    These bamboo shields are wonderful! They really helped this poor mum with a leakage problem, and they were very affordable. I’ll definitely use them next time


  • Amazing for the price

    4.5 out of 5

    I bought a packet of these on a week where we had not much money expecting them to not be good but I was incredibly wrong! The soft bamboo material was so soft and gentle on my nipples and they hold a lot of leakage in them, since buying these I haven’t gone back to expensive ones :)
