Right before I gave birth to my daughter, I went to the store to stock up on some basics I knew I'd need. When I went to pick up some nursing pads, I was sad to discover that Target no longer carried the pads I used with my son. I decided to try the ...
Pros: With big wet spots on your chest, no one notices lumpy pads under your bra. Cons: Move, leak, stick to you
YUCK! These are the worst pads I have ever tried! I got a free sample of them from the hospital so I gave them a try. First of all, they moved around under my bra and wouldn't stay put. They absorb next to nothing and leaked through my clothes. The...

Pros: Absorbent, inexpensive Cons: Plastic barrier holds moisture against the skin
Nursing pads are one of those little details that you never think about until you need them. I found that during the first few weeks of nursing, I leaked FREQUENTLY and in PLENTIFUL QUANTITIES. Some form of leak-protection was most definitely in order! ...
Pros: they were free, they were thin (an advantage at first), they were a trusted brand, soft to the touch, concealed well Cons: allowed leaks too occur all too often, stuck to my skin, too thin

Pros: Thin, not very expensive Cons: Not absorbent enough, no-show protection claim isn't true
My Story
I have used a grand total of 4 kinds of nursing pads, and 3 of them were Gerber nursing pads. Like most mothers, I was given samples of many things at the hospital when I gave birth to my second daughter.

Pros: thin, absorbent, holds a lot Cons: hard to tell when wet, doesn't conform well
Before the birth of my fourth child, Gerber Ultra-Thin Nursing Pads were my favorites. I found them while I was nursing my first child, and use them for the following three because I loved them.
Pros: thin, absorbent Cons: too thin, slippery, flat
I purchased the Gerber disposable nursing pads because, in my town of 7,000, that was all that was available. I have a good supply of washable pads that I am happy with but I like having disposables available for the baby bag and for those times...
