Which material is best to use to keep the cloth pad in place in my underwear?
I found this so interesting - at 67 still learning, wish I had known these things when I was younger,
I made the switch in November- and I’m SO GLAD I did!! Your super pads/overnights have been my holy grail. So much better than disposables! So comfortable < 3
I'm a heavy flower and I found that fuzzy fabric and terry cloth fabric worked a lot better than standard sanitary napkins. It was also very comfortable!
I made the switch a couple years ago and so glad that I did. Helps the environment and they are comfortable and easy to clean. Love these!! They also have super cute patterns.
Totally agree!
Found you on tiktok almost a year ago. It took me a while before finally caving and ordering. Its been a life changer ever since.
I was a cloth pad user, now my daughters use them too!!! They love them! They prefer them over disposable pads. They are 15 and 11.
I just made the switch with you at the end of last year - the supers are truly incredible and so comfortable. I don’t have a heavy flow by your definition, but I love the supers regardless! I have a low cervix and have a really hard time using a menstrual cup without lots of discomfort, so I’d been using traditional plastic pads since I gave up tampons years ago and my options were limited. This is one of the best purchases I’ve made all year. Can’t wait to continue building up my stash!! ❤️
wow thank you so much for sharing your testimony, this will really help a lot of people. i am so glad you love the supers!
I can not wait to order tomorrow! I’m on my period now and have started breaking out from the plastic so I need a new alternative ASAP! I’m so glad I found you ❤️
The cloth pad that actually works for me🙌 I found out about a year ago that I was allergic to disposable pads, which was hard cause I didn’t know where to turn then, I ran into cloth pads I purchased from SOCO and got my first order used those and was instantly in love!
I started using cloth pads after finding you on TikTok. Best choice I ever made.
Absolutely love soco studio reusable pads . I have very sensitive skin and was getting tired of the itchy rash from other store pads so I turned to this lovely lady and it was the best choice I made !!
I’m really excited to try reusable pads. It’s crazy to think of how much blood is actually bled during a period. This was great info thank you
Scared to make the switch - I’ve always stuck with one brand and one size because it’s what has worked for me. Getting closer to trying!
I can never go back I literally don’t know what I’d do without these overnights are my favorite. It was a very easy switch I have tried other brands but nothing has come close to these pads the absorbency is incredible
Me & my daughters made the switch almost 4 years ago!! We love clothe pads!!
Saw on TikTok and had never heard of reusables! I jumped on it cause I knew I was sick of everything else I have tried. I have already ordered twice from you and I’m waiting to get them in the mail. Can’t wait for next release, trying to build up my stash!
U are amazing please don't stop what ur doing I have ordered so many but I can't wait for the release tomorrow ill be ordering more!!❤💙💜💛
Your such a natural at this! &&& I love me some super pads:) switching to cloth because of SoCo Studios has changed my life! ❤️
I have always had a heavy flow and have tried many products. I have recently switched over to your reuse pad and it was worth it. This videos was very helpful. Thank you for all you do.
I’m so glad I found you about 2 yrs ago! But i was only ever able to score this past September. I have tried others from amazon but i keep reaching for yours.
I switched about 6 months ago and then found your tiktok and can’t wait to order from you!
I'm currently using my first order. In love with the super pads. Excited for the drop tonight so I can add more goodies.
I made the switch to reuseables because I wanted to go a more natural route with my period and since the switch my flow has gotten lighter!
that is excellent! this happens to a lot of people who make the switch
This was very helpful thanks !
I love your pads... im glad i found you
I was worried that I was wasting my money on something that wasn't going to work, but switching to cloth pads was the best thing I ever did.
Thank you that was very informative!
Great video. Thank you.
Kudos to you for making this video! I can’t imagine….
I am still in the process of switching, because I have never fully trusted that reusable pads would contain my flow. I have super heavy flows, and a really long cycle, so for me, it is about 10 days of needing pads and tampons, together at the same time. I use period panties for most of that time, too. So glad I am not the only one.
Cant wait to try your products... i would love to make the switch
I started using cloth pads about 6-7 years ago and I will never go back to disposable. I absolutely love soco studios super pads for my heavy days! If you haven't tried them yet, just do it, you won't regret it!
I know how you feel! I've had a heavy flow for many years. It has gotten a little bit better recently for some reason but it is still a heavy flow!! I cant wait to try reusable pads to see if that lightens my flow!
No, you are not the only one, I switch to reusable because my bathroom would look like a crime screen or the embarrassing running down the leg type thing. But great video I learn a lot
Great video
This video was SUPER HELPFUL. Thank you!!! I have actually measured my flow (when I was using a menstrual cup in the past) and it was 200ml+. I just got my first period back after having baby #6 and I feel like it's even heavier now. 😩 I do have Hashimoto's, so maybe that's part of it. I'm using cloth pads exclusively because I don't want to use a cup anymore and I've been really frustrated because I have been leaking through everything I feel a gush of blood. The ILP's sound like they'll be a game changer for me! I'm also going to get some period panties, loved that tip! And headed to your shop for some more pads! 😁
Yes! I use the cup sometimes and I hate the leaking. Might as well be using a pad. The ILPs are no joke.
I’m just trying cloth pads for the first time . I got mine custom made with a flair in the back . 18inches . I can’t wait to try them
Sounds great!
I CANNOT wait for my order!!
let me know when it gets there and what you think!
@@MakaylaKane09 I definitely will ❤️
I made the switch in November as well with your shop. Best decision I ever made:)
Flowing and a going haha. Thanks for the info! Off to check out more of your options for bamboo or zorb :)
Thanks so much for watching! Flowin and Goin is how we roll haha!
I can not wait to use my couple of pads i got from you on my next cycle. can not wait to get more.
it's funny how we get excited about our period coming when we get to use cute pads!
I'm on my journey to make my own reusable pads and this helped so much! My first full day is my heaviest day. I've been researching this for a few months now and this is the first video I've seen that even mentions gusher pads. New term I learned today and I think it will serve me well for my worst 2 days. I have a 7 day flow, but day 4 & 5 is fairly light, followed my 6 & 7, which I call "who knows?" 😂 I really can't wait to get started, as my main goal is to avoid all the chemicals and such associated with disposables. Thank you so much! 💙
I also wanted to mention, I recently purchased a heavy flow underwear and noticed a huge difference in my overall "down there" health. When my hormones change as my flow starts it will trigger a yeast infection. It's very random if/when it will happen, but it has completely stopped just from using that 1 pair of underwear 2 times per my cycle. (Per their instructions they are line dry only.) Whether you buy or make, this is definitely worth a try if you have any health issues.
@@Hellnogizmo what is the name of the underwear?
@@Lorlzee A pair of Thinx. I got them from Target for about $20. They do take some getting used to, especially worrying about leaking, but I have never had any leaks/issues other than getting used to the comfort. Beats wearing a pad/tampon to bed tho!
@@Hellnogizmo I've heard of this brand before
I made the switch postpartum because my period was so heavy and the extra long extra wide pads where a life saver over night. I hoping to get more super pads when you restock.
I am so glad you liked the XLXW pads and they helped you! You will love the super pads too.
I have PCOS and an overly heavy flow starting from my very first period at 13 years old. The only thing that works for me so I can sleep is a heavy flow tinx patties with a heavy flow 14 to 16 inches cloth pad. I also have to use that combination 2 to 3 days durning the day for my period. It is extremely heavy after just 2 hours while I am moving around. If I stay still it fills up slower but rushes out as soon as I move. Disposable pads and tampons give me rashes and open wounds.
My period is all over the place but my 13 year old has a super heavy period. Waiting till tomorrow to order her some pads.
Hey i from The Netherlands ( europe) the home makers do not make minky or bamboo pads so its hard to find and expensive on etsy i have a heavy flow and i use coton pads or bamboo pads i love cloth pads im allergic to disposables
Loved this! So explanatory. I’m a sewer too. I make my own bladder leak pads but want to make these for myself in waterproof. I’m finding it more comfortable but need to change it up now. Do you have a pattern I could buy to make for myself?
Hi Hallie! Thanks for reaching out. My business personally does not provide cloth pad patterns as of now. However, there are tons on etsy! That is how I got started until I designed my own pattern.
I switched to teamony cloth pads on Amazon and I love the absorbency and the non slip grips but the sides leak. I wonder if this will do the same. Thank you for the information and I tried your store but everything is sold out
About a year ago I suddenly woke up soaking through a pad.. never had that before had cramping and bloating off the charts. Next period was fine then they were heavy crazy and painful. My doctor found out that my C section scar had herniated plus even though my hormone tests were normal at 48 I was most likely in perimenopause. I've never done reusable pads but I'm going to give them a try I think.
I'm so sorry that happened to you!! You might find a different comfort and protection using cloth. Most people find that their overall health completely changes. Let me know if you need any help!
Question if minky isn't very absorbent, a lot say it's moisture wicking material, why would that be good for a pad or diaper? The water beeds on top and rolls around couldn't that potentially be messy for a period ?
I use teamony pads which I did love the absorbency however the sides leak so I really need to try your pads however it’s states on the site it’s all sold out
Hey. I do have a pretty heavy flow. I actually have some pads backed with windpro fleece and they do not ever leak through. I was afraid to try that type of backing. So maybe it depends on the quality of the fleece backing that makes it work or not. Also, I have a few pads with zorb in them that work really well but I do not like the top fabric. It isn't very soft so for that reason I don't like that brand. Then I have some with OVC and OCV toppers with cotton/bamboo fleece for the absorbancy, with the windpro backing. Those work really well too. Then I have some that have a hidden layer of PUL that is topped and backed with suade cloth. This material is amazing because it gives a stay dry feel and is amazingly stain resistant. They have a bamboo core. They can hold a ton (I have the extra heavy pads.) I do get some wicking onto my underwear with the last ones I mentioned, but maybe trying some of those tiny pad thingies you showed would help. Because it only happens when I bleed fast otherwise they work just fine. Thanks for this video. It has me thinking.
Thanks so much for sharing your insight and review of different types of pads for heavy flow! Everyone will have something different that works best for them, its all trial and error until you've found the perfect pads for you. We use zorb because it is antimicrobial and has no PFOAS or PFAS, as well as infused with silver ions, the best quality fabric designed to last a life time for reusable pads. Yes, sometimes the ILPs will help direct your flow if you are gushing.
GREAT!!! I often have what I call "crisis calls" - I wake up either from the night or a nap and I have to rush to the toilet. Many times I leak the entire distance. Which pad would you suggest/recommend for Incontinence problems?
My genetics decided my body would shove a whole weeks worth of period into 3 days. I figured it was a good trade off in high school. Fewer days of worrying about it, but three days of pads plus tampon every couple of hours.
Yeah I love my cloth pads but I’ve been thinking about doubling up with period panties too.
do it! the period panties are even great when you dont want to wear a pad because your flow is super light
Been using evawear panties for years now and have issues with leaks at the edges where the stitching is.
1) i had no idea ilps were a thing and that is genius
2) when making pads, how do you avoid stitching causing leaks?
How do the gushers work for incontinence?
Yes I have a really heavy period. I make gusher pads for myself so that I don’t leak on my first two days so f my period. They are fantastic. I really enjoyed your video. It’s a confirmation for that zorb really is the best. My question is this. I’ve never thought of using period panties for overnight. Usually I just wear Depends because I sleep on my back and my period will siphon up my butt and leave a spot all the way up by my crack. Will a period panty work and cover my top backside? Thank you!
Yes look for period pants which have a waterproof layer all the way up to the waistband at the front and back. I hope you'll be able to sleep more comfortably once you find the right underwear for you
Hello i am trying to buy mine from amazon... but the link doesn't show anything!
My blood goes everywhere
But maybe they mite help with just absorbing a little more blood . I can’t wear any pad without a wide back imma back bleeder my panties wud be a mess. I’ve always liked my pads bigger in the back
I am incontinent. How do they work for that?
On clots: my clots did go away when I switched from tampons to menstrual cups. So that is a possibility as well.
I am a cloth pad user for 15 years now!
I made and sew it myself
I am curious about the kinds of cloth and fabrics used
Where can I buy those 😊
I've been using reusable pads for years and never looked back. I do the menstrual undies with reusable pads combo as well. I always feel secure that way.
By chance, where did you get your period panties? I’ve used a super tamp with those 10 inch overnight pads just to make sure I don’t leak or what not. Last month was the first month I was tamp free! But I’m afraid once I start using my reusables, that I’ll need something a bit more.
Where have these products been all my life???
maandverband gebruiken die naar gebruiken in afvalbak is beter goed luier en goed maandverband
kruidvat maandverband luier goed
libresse maandverband goed
always maandverband goed
ongesteld dagen is normaal goed
maandverband in onderbroek is normaal goed stop taboe
I love mine and they have made my period so much lighter I feel
definitely lighter for a lot of people!
Are you still making these...?
What are your thoughts on microfiber layers inside?
I am against microfiber because it is not antimicrobial and doesn’t not absorb well enough. It can also hold smell
Ain’t no way i only bleed a double shot of expresso that’s probaly one pad and I’ve even had to use towels ontoo of my pad in the back .and period panties for back up
Where can i find the heavy bamboo? I just watched a guy literary say that anyone that uses sorb should be ashamed of themselves . I’m so mixed up !
Who said that? The guy who said that should be ashamed of himself. Heavy bamboo is not the best for pads. Its a great option, but there is so much pollution that goes into making bamboo itself, it costs 10x as much to buy and it dries so slow, making it take longer in the dryer. It does deteriorate over time.
@@MakaylaKane09 i love it for the period undies i wear as back up they use bamboo
I need this pad hw i get it
Hi! My shop website is in the description
How can I order?
Hi! My website is the description box. We just released a ton !
Why couldn't u have made these 30 years ago
Haha! I would have been 6 years old 😀
Over night with a skinny back 🤦🏽♀️
Crazy heavy period 🙋🏿♀️ i get a lot of pain too and at 40 years old it’s a lot for me I’ve been to my obgyn about options too …I’m anemic and take iron pills as well as period flow reducing pills which I don’t think do a lot for me 🤷🏿♀️….I’ve used all the things except period panties which I may try out soon. I love the feel and absorbency of overnight reusable pads but the washing time wow 😯 it’s a lot but honestly also worth it compared to cost of those always brand disposable overnights and how much more bulky those feel when soiled. I also hate sleeping in tampons ..i hate it and think my cramps are worse with them inside. I’m on the go a lot and have used menstrual cups …various sizes and brands but overall i rather not ….clean up in public bathrooms not fun and it’s not comfortable inserting and removing ….but for containing heavy flows 🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸it’s awesome ……
The iron might make your period super heavy. I agree!
I would highly recommend you stop using tampons all together unless you are making them from 100% cotton or bamboo fabric. My period flow decreased by 40-50% and cramps decreased by 50-70% after completely stopping retail tampon usage. I had a 7day cycle that use to smell weird on day 3 and 4 and my blood would sometimes be orange. I use to also have to put myself on bedrest with heavy sleeping pills for the first 2 days of my period just to be able to stand the pain. My grandmother and aunt told me that they think my pain might be at the level of child birthing pain. This went on for about 15 yrs until I started doing research. I stopped using tampons and birth control and my life has drastically changed over these last 7yrs.
At this point if I take 1-2 pills at the sight of blood on my first day, that’s all I will need for my whole cycle to avoid cramping. My flow is now on the lighter heavy side, my cycle alternates between 4-6days, and I don’t get as many clots as I use to. Blood is back to being pink and red and really no smell other than when I’m sweating super heavy. I’m hoping that once I start using cloth pads it will get even better, because I tend to slightly breakout if I get too hot in regular retail pads. I hope your cycle has gotten better.
