I wouldn't go for pul on a breastpad- unless you were going out somewhere and wanted a garuntee of no show through... I just changed mine as soon as they got soaked. Have you got any bamboo velour at home Maz? It's absorbant, as well as having the anti bacterial qualities and just as nice against your skin as the minkee. I use the 20% poly one- it's not as delicate and you can hand dye too! (Give me a hoy hoy if you want me to chuck enuff for a couple of pads in the mail for you to try).
