Recommend me some overnight pads?

Jan 08, 2012 13:54

I'm trying to switch to only reusable menstrual products after years of flirting with the idea. At the moment my stash consists of 8 regular flow pads by Eco Alternatives and 3 Imse Vimse pantyliners, with a sample bundle from Mimi's Dreams coming soon ( Read more... )

menstrual flow, cloth pads - absorbency, menstrual flow - heavy, reviews/feedback, fabric, personal experience, cloth pads - length

Homestead emporium makes a great larger maxi for nights. I used some of their ultimate pads for postpartum bleeding and they were excellent. If tie dye counts as cute, they fit the bill (and it's velour, so super soft).

The only thing I really rule out is solid colors and things with eyes. ;) They're looking a little pricey for me, but I'll keep it in mind. Thank you!

Tree Hugger Mama cloth fits the bill : she makes larger sizes, and has a collection of over 100 fabric choice in minky (which doesn't stain!), including some cute prints, florals, paisley, dots and the like. You can find her on facebook and hyena cart. I haven't tried her products personnally though.

Another seller I really like is Pink Lemonade, she makes both minky and adorable bamboo velour dyes, available on etsy. A few prints, and really gorgeous colors.

I have a major girl boner for Mimi's Dreams, so even before I got to the sentence where you said you had some on the way I was going to open my French doors into a gust of wind and yell her etsy link all up in this place. They are aaaaaawwwwwwweeeeeeesome. Seriously, her Overnights are great, but I lurve her Goddess line. I'm not plus sized at all, but prefer more coverage and they fit the bill to a T. Once I get more $$ (I did the "a little dab of this, a little touch of that" when I decided to switch and got a bunch of sample packs from different brands, but now I almost wish I had just gotten it all at Mimi's Dreams), I'm going to get a few more of hers to complete my stash needs.

And if she reads this, hai gurl haaaaaai. I <3 your product!

I like the lemonade pads too, and I really, really love yurt craft as my total fave!!!!
