Everyone knows that breastfeeding your baby gives him the best start in life. Cucicucicoo cloth nursing pads protect your clothing from milk leakage while helping you avoid the chemicals and harm to the environment inherent in disposables!
They are simple to use and machine wash (indications are given in the instructions). There are even included instructions on sewing a zippered wash bag to avoid losing the nursing pads in the washing machine. When out of the home, put your used pads in a small wet bag! For more information on why and how to use cloth nursing pads, see this page.
Why is this pattern awesome?

- Comfort: no more crinkly bleached paper on your skin.
- Beginner level: you don’t have to be a sewing pro to make these.
- Customized to you: get the perfect fit for your body and needs with either flat or conical pads.
