WeeCare wool nursing pads are made from 100% merino wool – organiccally certified by GOTS. Nursing pads of wool are really good to use if you want a warming nursing pad made of 100% natural materials that will let your skin breathe.

The wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight without feeling wet, and is therefore well suited as a nursing pad for you who leak a little or moderately. If you leak a lot, the wool pad may not enough on its own. But if you want to avoid waterproof plastic backing in your nursing pad, then it can be a really good idea to use the wool nursing pads in combination with a bamboo nursing pad to absorb most of the breast milk. Thereby, the wool will act as the water-repellent “backing” and you have a bullet-proof nursing pad that can hold most things inside. Our bamboo nursing pads can also be used alone.

Which nursing pads should you choose?
As a future mom, you have no idea how much you are going to leak. Therefore, it may be a good idea to have different types of Nursin Pads to try them out. Your needs may also change along the way in the breastfeeding process. E.g. it may be necessary to use a wool pad + bamboo pad in the beginning if you leak a lot, and later it may be enough to only use a bamboo pad or just the wool pad..

Our breastfeeding pads in wool and our breastfeeding pads in bamboo can be used individually or together:

• Nursing Pads in wool: For you who want 100% natural materials and 100% breathability for the skin. The wool nursing pad also warms the breast and prevents mastitis. Is also really good to use if you have already got mastitis or it is beginning! The wool also has an antibacterial effect, especially if you give it a treatment with pure lanolin.
• Bamboo nursing pads: Bamboo nursing pads are also for you who want natural materials and breathability for the skin, but who want the softest material possible directly against the skin. Our bamboo velor on these nursing pads is one of the softest fabrics you can imagine!!! And if you only leak a little, they may be just fine, but be aware, that this nursing pad has no definite waterproof or water-repellent backing!
• A combination of wool and bamboo: For you who leak a lot and where it runs too fast through to the clothes using either pure wool or pure bamboo inserts. A “bullet-proof” solution which sucks really well and holds tight. Be aware that this solution takes up some more space under the clothes. We recommend using a bamboo insert in one size smaller than the wool dusting insert, so that the wool nursing insert can cover a little over the edge all the way around.
• If you wish to avoid wool, our newest nursing pads with waterproof backing is a better choice!

Tip: If you get cracks / wounds on the nipples, then WeeCare Lanolin Ointment is REALLY good at helping the skin to heal, and at the same time it keeps the wound moist so that a hard scab does not form. It really hurts when your baby “sucks” a hard crust of the nipple when you have to breastfeed!
We can also recommend a mini wetbag for storing used inserts until they need to be washed.

100% GOTS certified wool

With these reusable and washable nursing pads from WeeCare, you can avoid unnecessary chemistry that is difficult to avoid in disposable products. It is therefore healthier and more natural for both you and your child.

These washable and reusable nursing pads have a waterproof backing, which ensures that the liquid does not pass through to your clothes. With these nursing pads, you do not need to use wool as a water-repellent layer on the outside, as with our other bamboo nursing pads. These nursing pads have a waterproof backing and an absorbent core of microfibre, and then they have soft bamboo terry against the skin.

If you want nursing pads without the waterproof back, our 100% breathable nursing pads are what you need.

The back of the nursing pads has the beautiful and popular print “Branches – Bright”.

WeeCare Bamboo Nursing Pads are made from 2 layers of absorbent hemp fabric and one layer of ultra soft bamboo velour fabric on the top. You can, of course, choose which side you want against the skin, but the soft bamboo-side is really pleasant!

If you have sensitive nipples or tendencies to rifts when breatfeeding, then this nursing pad is the perfekt solution for you.

Note that our nursing pads do not have any waterproof layer on the back. This means that 1) they do not contain any plastic and 2) your skin can breathe. If you only leak a little, they will be just fine, but if you leak more, then you can choose to use nursing pads of wool, and if you leak a lot (many do in the beginning), then you can choose to use our nursing pads together with a pair of wool nursing pads on the outside — then you have a bullet-proof solution. Our nursing pads soak a lot and the wool makes sure to keep your cloth dry.

To sum up, WeeCare Bamboo Nursing Pads are excellent to have in the beginning with a newborn, since it is often at this time one easy gets rifts or wounds on the nipples.

Tip: If you get rifts/wounds on the nipples then WeeCare Lanolin Ointment is perfect to help the skin healing while keeping the wound moist so thay no scabs are formed (because it really hurts when your baby removes a scab when breastfeeding!)

We can also recommend a wetbag for storing the used nursing pads.

Lanolin Ointment 50 mL

1) Protects the skin

In order to protect the skin against frost and cold weather, and to prevent broken skin, add the ointment to the exposed area of the skin before you go out in the cool weather. The exposed area, you add the ointment to, could be your baby’s cheeks or hands before he or she will take a nap in the baby carriage outside, or it could be your own hands which easily become dry in the cold weather.

The ointment is also really good to protect a baby butt that reacts to wearing a diaper with pee. Simply add the ointment to the clean and dry skin before you give your child a diaper on; the beeswax in the ointment will then create a protecting barrier on the skin, which ensures that the pee cannot penetrate the skin and thus irritate the child.

2) Repairs damaged skin

Our lanolin ointment — and especially the natural grease, lanolin, in it — has a positive effect on the skin’s healing process. Therefore the ointment is very good for dry and cracked skin as well as for damaged skin, since it preserves the natural moisture of the skin while simultaneously softening the skin and healing it. Add the ointment in order to calm the skin or to remove a little wound, a scratch, a mosquito bite or in general dry and irritated areas on the skin, such as hands, lips, nipples and of course the baby’s butt (the ointment is brilliant for repairing sensitive baby skin that has become red).

Suitable for small children

Because the ointment is made of 100 % natural ingredients, is free from perfume, free from preservatives, free from parabens, and free from hormone disrupting drugs, it is very suited for small babies and children.
