washing nursing pad...

[Jen]

I am sorry that it might sound like a stupid question: how do you wash the
nursing pad?

I usually soak the pads with my bra into a soapy water for a while, then
raise they with clear water for couple times, then hang it. However, I
couldn't let them dry under the Sun 'cos my building won't allow anything
in the balcony except plants or balcony furnitures. This morning, I find
that there is a pinky spot at the centre of my nursing pads. And it smells
a bit sour... just wonder whether it has been ruin. Should use vinegar to
wash my nursing pad instead of soapy water?

Please advice.

I just wash mine like I do anything else. Run them through the washing
machine. I even dry mine, although the washing instructions say not to.
I've never had a problem.

If I didn't have a washing machine, I would probably wash them out in
the sink with Woolite, or something like that. Then just use
clothespins over a wire hanger to hold them to dry.

hth,
Jodie

Just throw them in the washing machine. Don't use any fabric
softener.

my suggestion is to just buy disposable ones. its cheap, convenient,
and you just through them away.

Ok, while i totally agree with you on the nursing pads, diapers, wipes, and
I could name lots of others, I must ask what your alternative is to menstral
pads?

How in the world is it that I have never seen or heard of this..... guess
its not too common in TX

Pandora's (really, there is a brand of cloth pads with that name!)

Are you speaking of cloth pads? Pandora's are made in Louisiana. Maybe
you don't get down on the bayou enough.

Yeah, but I hate the Pandora pads. Glad rags are so much better. The
Pandoras have some weird design that makes it hard to get the liner back
into the pocket, and the fabric they use isn't near as soft and nice as
Gladrags are.
