Lanowool wool breast pads
Soft wool breast pads perfect for sensitive skin
In keeping with our "best from the rest of the world" policy we are pleased to offer Lanowool® wool breastfeeding pads. They are a premiere product, designed to give ultimate comfort to breastfeeding mothers. Lanowool® breastfeeding pads are made of specially processed fine merino wool in New Zealand and are treated with a purified lanolin, creating the optimal environment for breast care prior to birth and during nursing. The pads are processed using only eco-friendly biodegradable detergents.

Advantages of Lanowool® breastfeeding pads:

Soft, comfortable and will not stick to sore nipples

Treated with a highly purified lanolin to provide excellent healing and nipple conditions

Wool keeps breasts at a constant body temperature which helps milk flow

breathable; moving moisture away from your body

Can be used for the entire breastfeeding period

Can also be used by women with sensitive nipples

Suitable for use in any type of climate

Highly rated in midwife trails in the UK and recommended by midwives in New Zealand. If the thought of sore nipples is horrific to you then these pads are for you! One pair of pads will be sufficient for women with an average milk supply. For a larger supply of milk and for leakage, you will need two pairs. For night time you may need to use two pads for extra-absorbency. Available in two sizes: Regular (12 cm diameter) , or Large (15 cm diameter) for women with larger breasts (size 16 plus). Rinse the pads lightly before the first use. To wash, handwash with a mild wool soap, rinsing the pads under running lukewarm water. Rinse the pads initially every 1-2 days when you have a lot of milk. After the milk supply has settled, it is recommended that you rinse the pads every 1-2 weeks. Allow 5% shrinkage. Available in pairs.

Stay dry mattress pad
Stay dry mattress protector pad
These useful pads are made from a slim layer of buttery-soft fleece, a layer of absorbent cotton and a layer of lightweight pliable waterproof fabric. It is completely non-crinkly and is useful from pregnancy to teenage years, so you will get your use out of them!

Useful in pregnancy when you might want to protect your mattress from your waters breaking, under baby's sheet as a mattress protector, under mum and baby in the family bed to contain breastfeeding leaks or possets, as a baby massage mat, or a changing pad for older babies, for bed-wetting toddlers or older children or even as a snuggly soft protective cover on the car seat or the sofa to contain life's little accidents! Leaks will be absorbed into the absorbent core while the fleece remains quite dry, allowing the sleepers to sleep without disturbance. They are absorbent enough to hold a full wee but will need to be changed when soaked.

Whilst big enough to accommodate all these uses, these pads are small enough to easily pop underneath yourself when breastfeeding or under the 'target areas' for bed-wetting toddlers. These pads are small enough not to fill the washing machine and several will fit in one machine load, though it is fine to wash them with loads of other washing. They hang to dry quickly (hang waterproof side down to allow evaporation) or can be tumble-dried. Available in white, size varies slightly but approx. 65cm x 100cm. We have five of these in our house and most of them are in use at any one time for something!

TNT (Tender Nipple Treatment)
Cream with calendula, olive oil and cabbage extract for preventing & treating sore nipples
Not everyone finds breastfeeding comfortable in the early days (though this should pass). As with baby's bottom, nothing beats airing for helping to heal tender nipples. We have even heard of one mother who cut holes in an old jumper to achieve this! However, this isn't always practical (!), so we offer TNT to help out. Use after feeding to keep delicate skin moisturised and protected with natural ingredients. It might be handy to put a pot in your hospital bag. Parabens free.
