r/clothpads

I have never used reusables before but I've been following Tree Hugger on Instagram and decided I wanted to try some out. But I also saw that Soft Taco is recommended. It's a little cheaper, so I thought that might be good since I'm just trying it out, but I also want to give reusables a fair chance and get a decent product to see if I like it. They are both Canada based so I'm assuming the shipping costs will be similar (I'm in the USA).

These are the things that are important to me:

-small business

-longer pads at least 12 inch

-as breathable as possible

-not weird/velvet-like texture

-absorb quickly

-reasonable price under about $20 per pad

Which of these options do you think would be best for me? OR are there other small businesses you can recommend?

Looking for recs in the US on pad companies to get for postpartum.

Ideally i would like a handmade shop and not from amazon.

I have some from prior pregnancies but i want to buy a few more.

I was looking at SOCO pads and wasnt sure if they were goor and no idea what size to get
