So I hesitantly made the switch to mommy cloth because after having my first child, the usual feminine products were uncomfortable. I found this pad at a local retailer (Go Baby Go) and I could not be more pleased. The velour top is incredible! and I absolutely love the stackable option.

Just a tip to prevent staining- your own saliva will get rid of the stain. I know it sounds totally weird, but try it. You will see the blood disappear right before your eyes. I also rinsed in cold and if I get a stain, I plan on sunning, just like my baby's cloth diapers.

You will not regret getting this product. I purchased the microfiber, only because hemp was not available, but it is great!

Great pads!

I was skeptical about the idea of reusable pads, mostly because I was afraid they would leak. I spent a lot of time researching and choosing, and gave knickernappies a try. I''ve been using the pads for about 6 months now and I only go back to disposable pads when I run out of fresh reusables, so now I am purchasing a couple extra sets to completely forget about disposables - now in hemp.



Something you need to consider: these are not going to stay stain-free, alas. They are not going to look discreet enough for you to want anyone else to ever see them. So, plan your strategy: where do you plan to soak it, where do you launder it so that your husband or kids or mother-in-law don''t come across, you know what I mean. And goes without saying, you cannot just dump a used pad in your laundry load with your clothes, you have to soak them first. They are more environmentally-friendly than disposables, without a doubt, but you will spend lots of water laundering them every month, so the ecology should not be your number 1 reason to get these. Because they take time to get washed and dry, you may need a set of 4 or so for your special time of the month.



Taking the mentioned concerns into considerations, the advantages are: the fleece surface feels sooo comfortable; the shell is absolutely leak-proof, this is some modern nano- mega- science technology fabric that does not soak; disposable pads have a tendency to irritate my skin - knickernappies feel pretty much like another pair of panties, very natural. In the bottomline, I love them and am very happy that I ventured to try them out.
