Review of Fresh Moon Mama Pads & a Giveaway!!

Hey there mamas!! I'm Christy with Gorgeous and Green. Back for "my time" of the month to talk about just that. When I started cloth diapering, I at first didn't even think about doing the same sort of thing for myself. Then a couple of months later I started reading all these posts on different forums about mamas using cloth pads and even the Diva Cup. It took me a LONG time to wrap my head around the thought of washing my monthly necessities but I finally did it!


I started off using Happy Heiny's mama pads and they worked very well. Then I decided to get a couple of these new ones I'd started carrying to test them out and they were even better! They're Fresh Moon pads and they are SO super soft and absorbent! They stay in place very well, much to my surprise, and clean up nicely too.



Fresh Moon offers several different fabric combinations and sizes to accomadate your lightest or heaviest days. They also have their Elegance line that come in an elegant black color and with a top layer of organic Bamboo Velour.



I'm still not sure that I will ever be able to get myself to use a Diva Cup, but I feel much better knowing that I'm helping out the Earth by reusing my pads. Now when "my time" is upon me I have one thing to look forward to - the softness of Bamboo and no thick bulky pads!



Now you have something to look forward to - your chance to win two different sizes and fabrics of Fresh Moon pads of your choice! Please be patient as I'm waiting for my shipment to arrive so my site shows "out of stock". I expect them any day now!

  88. I checked out Gorgeous and Green website and loved the Green Toys BPA-free Feeding Utensils! As an expectant mom due in October with my first, I am becoming uber aware of the safety of products for babies and children, especially plastics. I also love the fact that these utensils are made from recycled milk jugs!
