Why Nursing Pads?

Nursing pads are essential for breastfeeding mums as they provide comfort, protection, and peace of mind. They absorb excess milk, preventing embarrassing leaks and keeping your clothes dry, which is especially useful when you're out or at work. The award-winning Rite Aid Ultra-Comfort Nursing Pads is equipped with super-absorbent polymer that has the ability to absorb up to 80 times its weight. By creating a soft barrier between your nipples and your bra, nursing pads help protect sensitive skin from irritation and maintain hygiene by reducing the risk of bacterial growth. You can confidently go about your day without worrying about unexpected leaks or discomfort, making them a convenient and vital part of your breastfeeding routine.


Preparing for Use

Before applying a nursing pad, make sure your nipple area is clean and dry. This helps prevent irritation and ensures that the pad adheres well to your skin.



Positioning the Nursing Pad

  • Applying the Pad: Open the pad and peel the sticker.

  • Align with Your Nipple: Stick the pad to your bra, centering it over your nipple. This ensures maximum coverage and absorption.

  • Secure in Place: The Ultra-Comfort Nursing Pads have a contoured shape that fits your breast comfortably. Make sure the pad lies flat against your skin to prevent leaks.


Changing Pads

To stay fresh and dry, change your nursing pads as soon as they become wet. This helps maintain hygiene and prevents irritation. Carry a few spare pads in your diaper bag for quick changes when you’re out and about.


Pairing with a Supportive Bra

For the best results, wear a comfortable, supportive bra that holds the nursing pads securely in place. A well-fitting bra helps prevent shifting and ensures you stay leak-free throughout the day.


Additional Tips

  • Keep Extras Handy: Always have a few extra nursing pads on hand, whether you’re at home or on the go.

  • Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water helps maintain your milk supply and overall comfort.

  • Check for Sensitivity: If you notice any irritation or discomfort, try switching to a different type of pad or consult your healthcare provider.


Rite Aid Ultra-Comfort Nursing Pads are a great tool for new mums, offering peace of mind and helping you stay dry and comfortable while you focus on bonding with your baby.
