Contoured Nursing Pad Pattern (PDF)
Make your own contoured nursing pad! Pattern works well with both woven and knit fabrics. Includes multiple sizes for your needs. Add more layers to increase absorption or try a different core like Zorb. ***********This is a PDF SEWING PATTERN and not a ready-to-wear nursing product. ***********
Larger size + contoured shape = less noticable

Possible fabric combos:
4 layers of cotton flannel
2 layers of wool with a cotton topper
3 layers of cotton french terry
2 layers of cotton knit with a layer of Zorb inbetween (my favorite!)
For some breath ability (great for those in hot/humid climates or skin issues), you can add an athletic mesh topper!
For those who have a strong let down, you can add additional layers in the center only then stitch about an inch inside the edge to secure. This also created a graduated, trimmer edge.
