I
thought initially the pads were quite bulky, but impressed with the quality. I
liked the packaging, as it was recyclable and easy to open. I really liked the fact that each pad was
individually wrapped so putting it in the hospital bag was easier as I didn’t
have to bring the whole bag with me.
Also as it was folded I half it was discreet taking it to the toilet. It
was pretty straightforward to use. Maybe
it could’ve been handy to know which was the front and which was the back. I
was actually very impressed with the quality as it was very comfortable to use
and very "cushiony”. The sticker on the
reverse of the pad made it stay in place. I think it’s very reasonable for the
price its retailing for. I think the quantity was just right personally for me
after birth too. Due to the comfort and quality this would be something I would
consider using again. I really like the
fact they were individually wrapped as the previous brand I had used didn’t
offer this which I found inconvenient packing for my hospital bag as I had to
bring the whole supply. I would certainly recommend. I would’ve marked it 5/5
if the product offered wings. I liked it and was very happy to try a new
brand I wasn’t familiar with. Usually I
stick with brands I know or something I can sample before committing to. It was great at absorbing and was large
enough to cover the surface area I needed it to absorb. If I was being really particular I would’ve
liked the pads to have wings only because it would put my mind at rest that
there would no movement during the night. Ellie

Nice
simple packaging and high quality maternity pad. Upon first impression it
looked very similar to other less expensive maternity pads. I liked that the
pads were individually wrapped but felt that the wrapper could be designed to
re wrap the old pad to allow for easy clean disposal. Simple packaging that is
easy to recycle. Nothing unnecessary. The pads come individually wrapped, which
is useful but could be designed to re wrap the old pad to facilitate easy clean
disposal. No real instruction for use needed but the leaflet gives a good
overview of all available organyc products. It also clearly explains how this
product is different to other maternity pads available. I was initially
sceptical as to how different these maternity pads could be different to the
supermarket maternity pads which I paid £2.99 for 10. I found that I could
actually tell the difference between these products. I had been using another
brand for the first couple of days before this product arrived and this pad is
more breathable, and felt more like cotton. I found that it remained soft and
absorbent for longer and remained in place with no leaks. I would however have
liked to have been able to wrap the old pad into the packet of the new pad to
aid for ease of disposal. I noticed the difference in quality between this
product and others available but at £5.99 they are significantly more expensive
and as a new mother I was using a minimum of two to three pads a day changing
it after each bath or shower. This packet lasted me 5 days and given that you
can experience bleeding for up to 6 weeks this is not the most affordable
option. Although expensive I would invest and buy again for the first week post
birth as I did notice the difference in how breathable the pads felt and that I
felt fresher for longer. I would not completely replace the more affordable
pads as this product is more of a luxury item at this price and I have found
that although not as comfortable the other products available they do serve the
purpose adequately. I would recommend this product to my family and friends for
the first week post-delivery as I feel it assisted with quick healing and may
have been a contributory factor in helping me avoid any perineal infection
although I only used the cheaper products with my first child and also avoided
infection. Overall I rate this product 4/5, and I would have scored 5/5 if more
competitively priced. A high quality luxury maternity pad for the period
immediately post childbirth. It felt like cotton, offered adequate absorbency
and allowed me to feel fresher for longer. My only negative is that the pads
are expensive costing 50% more than the product I was previously using.
Although I noticed a clear difference and found organyc to be of superior
quality it would not be enough for me to switch. Nicola

The
packaging and presentation of the product was aesthetic but I had never seen
this product in the shops before. I was impressed with the individual wrapping
of the pads which made them feel hygienic and easy to carry individually and
dispose of also. The use of the product was very self-explanatory without much
instructions needed. The product was of high quality and comfortable to use. Compared
to other maternity pads on the market I found the product to be much more
comfortable with less leakage due to the design of fit especially for night
use. Immediately after childbirth this product is very useful to ensure
comfort. Especially if you have stitches. I would recommend this product to
family and friends. This product is great for use directly after childbirth
especially in heavy bleeding as it is comfortable, soft and absorbent. The individual wrapped pads make storage and
disposal easy and hygienic. Cindy Lan – Amelie 15
