Day & Night Nursing Pads Explained: Why Two Types?

Day & Night Nursing Pads Explained: Why Two Types?

You’ll see “Day” and “Night” pads on some sets (including NuAngel’s), and it’s not just marketing—it’s about matching absorbency to real life so you can stay dry with fewer changes.

What’s different?

  • Day Pads (4 layers of 100% cotton)

    • Slim, breathable, and comfortable for everyday wear

    • Ideal once your supply settles or for moderate leaks

  • Night Pads (8 layers of 100% cotton)

    • Double the cotton for extra absorbency

    • Designed for overnight or heavy let‑down periods

    • Subtle sage backing to tell them apart at a glance

Get both in one box: NuAngel Day & Night Reusable Nursing Pads (4‑pack) (2 day + 2 night).

When to use which

  • Morning to evening: Wear the 4‑layer day pads and swap when damp.

  • Before bed: Switch to 8‑layer night pads to stay asleep longer.

  • Travel or early weeks: Keep plant‑based disposables handy for quick changes.

Fit & comfort tips

  • Place the pad directly over your nipple and smooth outward to avoid bunching.

  • Choose a lightly lined nursing bra if you want a seamless look under tees.

  • Change pads as soon as they feel damp to prevent irritation.

How many do I need?

  • Minimalist: Day & Night 4‑pack + one 4‑count daytime set

  • Everyday set: Day & Night 4‑pack + two 4‑count sets (gives you 6 day pads + 2 night pads)

  • Add cotton burp cloths if your let‑down surprises you during burps or after pumping.

Why cotton?

NuAngel’s pads are 100% cotton against skin—breathable, hypoallergenic, and easy to wash. Cotton softens with use, stays comfortable in summer heat, and is kind to sensitive nipples.

The takeaway: Use Day for comfort and breathability when you’re up and moving; use Night when you want extra security (and sleep). Start with the Day & Night 4‑pack and shape your rotation from there.
