Cloth pads - how many do you own?

[Trillian]

Heaven, I soak mine in a bucket of water and before I do I give them a real good rinse out to get any excess blood off them. I have not had a single stain on mine and 3 of them have pale pink velour and you couldn't even tell what they were used for. You treat them like a cloth nappy and don't use fab softener either and I dry them in the sun, which also fades any marks that may be there

HJ - they don't soak through because they all have inner PUL which prevents that and the fabric grips the fabric and most of them will have wings as well They also don't bunch like disposable pads either and I've not had a single leak and I have a pretty heavy flow. Not to mention how nice the velour feels against your delicate bits
