Default washing nursing pad...

I am sorry that it might sound like a stupid question: how do you wash the
nursing pad?

I usually soak the pads with my bra into a soapy water for a while, then
raise they with clear water for couple times, then hang it. However, I
couldn't let them dry under the Sun 'cos my building won't allow anything
in the balcony except plants or balcony furnitures. This morning, I find
that there is a pinky spot at the centre of my nursing pads. And it smells
a bit sour... just wonder whether it has been ruin. Should use vinegar to
wash my nursing pad instead of soapy water?

Please advice.

I just wash mine like I do anything else. Run them through the washing
machine. I even dry mine, although the washing instructions say not to.
I've never had a problem.

If I didn't have a washing machine, I would probably wash them out in
the sink with Woolite, or something like that. Then just use
clothespins over a wire hanger to hold them to dry.

hth,
Jodie

Just throw them in the washing machine. Don't use any fabric
softener.

Ok, while i totally agree with you on the nursing pads, diapers, wipes, and
I could name lots of others, I must ask what your alternative is to menstral
pads?

Are you speaking of cloth pads? Pandora's are made in Louisiana. Maybe
you don't get down on the bayou enough.
