i have been hearing a lot about cloths pads of late....and i am starting to get interested.

so basically are they the same as normal pads but u wash them???

i dont really know much about them can someone enlighten me plz??

**bekkyboo** · 08-07-2007 20:24

For me ... Yep... Only real difference is that i wash them. I have a icecream container with water in them and just drop them in there until washing (to prevent staining)...

Much happier with them than sposies.

Any specific Q. ??? I cant think otherwise!

I will be using them when my AF returns because:
Its eco-friendly
I hate the smell of...'old pads' in the bin
Its cheaper
I wont have to worry about running out
no more having the shame of buying them
no more yucky plastic feeling
no more rashes (yep I get rashes)
more breathable I would imagine..
Nice range to choose from different patterns, hemp/bamboo ect
No nasty 'perfumes'

yep, Heaps more breathable!

I put a dark coloured top on them so you also dont get the jarring contrast of colours either (but you can still keep an eye on flow..)

Thanks bekkyboo, I though they would be more breathable.

Sorry to Hyjack your thread hun hehe!!!

**studyingECS** · 08-07-2007 21:08

no worries, i was just about to ask the same question

**neostudded** · 08-07-2007 21:08

I was also wondering where would be a good place to buy some from.

I like the idea of organic cotton, hemp & bamboo.

Google these words: labyrinth obsidian pads

Obsidian has a list of some stores that sell cloth pads (aswell she a mountain of info on cloth pads and cups).

There are a lot more places now than what she has listed, but it gives you a good starting point.
