Bamboobies!

**CLOSED**
**WINNER: random.org #4, congrats Sabrina! Winner has been emailed. Thanks to all who entered and thanks again to Bamboobies!**

I’m a breastfeeding mama and started out with disposable nursing pads. WOW, you go through those things like water! It was starting to get expensive and I was telling Steve every time he ran to Babies R Us that he needed to buy more pads. Ridiculous. So we bought some washable pads… the milk just ran right off of them and made a mess. They were only good for minor leaking – I definitely couldn’t use them at night while I was sleeping.

Then I discovered Bamboobies! These are super-soft, organic bamboo velour, milk-proof nursing pads. Yea, you heard me – velour! They’re so soft, it’s great for sore nursing nipples. AND they’re heart-shaped! How cute is that?! Just like wearing cute underwear, heart-shaped pads are way more fun Plus, the heart shape helps it to form better to any cup size – no wrinkling=less visibility! They’re really thin too so they don’t show through. These regular heart-shaped pads are for minor leaking after your milk has regulated (about 1 – 3 months).

But really, what amazed me was that their overnight pads actually worked!!! They may not for super heavy spray-across-the-room kinda letdown, but I nurse from one side all night long and the other side tends to be a wet mess most mornings. These pads work great. You can also use them when you first start breastfeeding, before the milk is regulated. They’re bigger and thicker than the regular ones, but don’t worry – they are just as soft! Made of super-soft fleece and anti-microbial bamboo (which absorbs 4x as much as cotton).

These were designed by a mom of two in Boulder, CO. We love mom-made businesses! Overall – I highly recommend. I love that they are fair-trade and organic, they’re super-soft and fun, and they WORK!

The regular heart-shaped pads come in black, hot pink or light pink and a portion of all purchases is used to help fund breast cancer research! You can buy a 2-pair pack of regular pads for $16.99 or the overnight pads for $14.99. They also sell a cute set (pictured above) in a lingerie bag with 1 of each color of regular pads + 1 pair of the overnight pads for $29.00 (the 4^th pair is free)! AND I have to mention – a really great gift set for a new mom (need a gift?!): 2 pairs of nursing pads and a butterfly wrap (nursing cover, maternity skirt and/or shawl) in a cute box for $59.00.

One lucky reader is going to WIN their own pair of Bamboobies! Winner will get to choose if they’d like the regular pads (and in what color) or the overnight pads!
