I am a new mother and have had to deal with major leakage overnight - not so much during the day as I'm feeding my daughter more frequently. These do the job well enough, better than the Gerber Ultra Thins but mostly because they have the adhesive tab to keep them in place - a must for side sleeping. Also, they don't seem to irritate my sensitive nipples or leave me feeling soaked in the morning. The fit well enough - I am a 36D when full and these provide good coverage. You can see the edges under my sleep bra and tank top, but I don't care since I am sleeping though this would be an issue if I chose to wear a thin bra during the day. I prefer molded cups for better support and they aren't visible at all when I use them during the day.

However, I would say these are virtually identical to the Lanisoh disposables in size, feel, texture, and effect but cost three times as much. These come 24 in a box and the Lanisoh have 60 for a similar price point (Gerber was $.50 cheaper when I purchased). The main difference in the two is I think Gerber uses the silica gel beads for absorption where Lanisoh just has soft pad. I would recommend Lansinoh for the value over the Gerber, but this product is effective and I would buy it if I didn't have other options.

I love these pads!!!!!
They never leak and they are the only brand that I trust and feel comfortable with.

These are the only nursing pads that work for me. My baby suddenly went from sleeping 3 hours to sleeping 6 and then 10 hours. My milk supply couldn't keep up with the change, and I was leaking like crazy. These are the only pads that could keep up. But they are also thin enough to wear under clothes on those days when I am away from my baby for more than 1 or 2 feedings and am afraid of leaking.

I haven't used this box yet so my review assumes the pads haven't changed since I used them two years ago.

These are the only pads that I found that were absorbent enough for the amount of leakage that I had and they were not particularly bulky. They also did not irritate my breasts like many of the other pads that I tried (which also weren't absorbent enough).

these are a little itchy and have little conture thing that you can see if you wearing thin clothing. they do seem to hold the most though without getting smelly (overnight) i still buy these ones even if they are itchy

This was the only pad that worked for extra overnight protection with my 1st child. I used to buy it at Target and found they no longer carry it, so... I searched long and hard on the internet. I was desperate and ordered a box the week my 2nd child was born because nothing else works quite as well.

It seems these are getting harder and harder to find, and I'm so sad! These have fuller coverage (width/diameter) but are thinner than the playtex/lansinoh/J&J ones I've tried, and absorb a LOT more. I also love the medium and light flow versions for daytime and when baby is older. They're great!
