    What happens to PUL when it goes in the drier?

    I know this isn't a nappy question, but I thought it'd be as best place of any to ask!

    What happens to PUL when it goes in the drier? I think I've just killed my breastpads

    BPs should be ok mine have gone in the drier with no issues it can delaminate which means its not waterproof anymore but the bps will still work just not as good or for as long HTH

    What happened to your bp?

    Did you have it on high or low? Cos low is ok.

    nah it's always on high cos it's a pretty crappy drier...

    i have noticed that I'm soaking thru them, but DS has been sleeping thru the night so I'm fairly full and preyy much leaking everywhere!

    Really - nothing - except that it will rebond with the fabric it is attached to.
    It does however depend on the quality of laminate used and whether or not it was bonded at home or during manufacture...
    And of course if it were sewn in correctly inside your BP - I am assuming it is a 'hidden' layer of PUL?

    i was soaking them through at night when DS was little too i woke up wet i dont think it had anything to do with the pul just lots of milk maybe sleep on a towel not very comfy but it at least helps soak it a bit

    I would suggest then that you speak with Maz directly - but her quality and her materials are second to none. So have a chat to her and see what she says.

    What do you think has happened to them? How are they ruined?

    LS, they're just soaking thru... by the flow at night is equivalent to a running tap ><;; I think I might just have extremely high expectations for PUL!
