Patent

CA 2327399

A breast pad for absorbing fluid near a nipple is disclosed. The breast pad has an outer layer made from a substantially circular piece of absorbent material with a stitched radial tapering fold such as a dart which is deformable to a substantially concave or conical shape to substantially cover the nipple. The breast pad also has an intermediate layer of absorbing material having a shape which assists the intermediate layer to conform to an inside surface of the substantially concave shape of the outer layer. The intermediate layer is attached to the outer layer in a radial position corresponding to the stitched tapering fold such that the intermediate layer substantially covers the stitched tapering fold. In this way, the intermediate layer provides additional absorbent material near the nipple, and, prevents direct contact of the stitched tapering fold with the nipple. The breast pad also comprises an inner layer made of a hydrophilic material which dries substantially faster than the intermediate layer and draws fluid away from the nipple and towards the intermediate layer and the outer layer. To assist in orienting the intermediate layer near the bottom of the nipple, the intermediate layer has a perceptively different colour than the outer layer.
