2. "Sometimes I wear breast pads when I want to wear a camisole without a strapless bra, but don't want my nipples to show through."

3. "I used to place a used breast pad in the crib with my baby at bedtime so that she could have my scent with her. That always helped her sleep better."

7. "Breast pads are great for placing under drips in pipes."

8. "I once left the house without any menstrual pads, and the breast pads in my diaper bag worked great when my postpartum bleeding started unexpectedly."

9. "My husband used a breast pad as a large bandage for a cut. It worked pretty well, although he got a lot of teasing for wearing a nursing pad on his leg."

10. "When I'm painting, I use breast pads to wipe off excess water from the brush after I've rinsed it. They're absorbent, convenient, and much easier to use than paper towels!"

12. "Breast pads are super coasters. They're so absorbent — the liquid never touches the table!"

13. "Breast pads are perfect for taking off nail polish."

14. "Breast pads are great for scrubbing toilets (not the disposable kind!)."

17. "A breast pad works great to prevent a spontaneous "shower" from a baby boy!"
