My friend, Aileen, moved away to Australia. *sob* I can't feel too sorry though as she's happily married with two beautiful children in Australia. Plus she's incredibly talented and creative.
She started a handmade company called LimeDaisy Design a few years ago. Specialising in Mum-friendly products, she sent me a couple of her bamboo breast pads called Daisy Pads and, friend, let me tell you: if you are a breastfeeding mama or know one, you need to GET THESE.
And you may because I'm giving away TWO sets of Daisy Pads!
Here's a quick intro from Aileen:
Hi, I'm Aileen a Stay at Home Mum of two little ones. I love to sew and create. LimeDaisy Design was born many years ago and has developed over the years. The main focus of LimeDaisy Design is now Daisy Pads - Bamboo Breast Pads. I started making them with my second child as I could not find anything that was capable of keeping up with the milk I was supplying. So after a little research into the best materials to use, I started making Daisy Pads with a bamboo core. They are super absorbent and super soft on your skin. What makes them unique is the fantastic range of fabric covers that they come in. You no longer have to limit yourself to just white pads from the chemist! Try them, you will fall in love with them and never go back to disposables again!
Seriously.
I can't bring myself to use disposables. I have tried every kind of breast pad out there and have half-heartedly settled on a basic cotton brand and it seems that they always leak through or suffocate the area.
But when I received Aileen's breast pads, I was converted. These are amazing - soft, absorbent, large enough for us large breasted women and, of course, handmade. The bamboo core makes all the difference in the world.
Plus they're pretty darn cute.
