Doctors warn about bacteria growing on wet nipples, I'd love to see them try to keep a nipple dry when it is gushing at the sound of a crying baby.
Stores sell washable breast pads that are no better then a folded cotton handkerchief that will still soak through your clothing when you get more then a few drops on it. Or there are the expensive super high tech disposable breast pads with a dry shield and waterproof back side that can hold a few more drop before leaking from the bottom and drenching down your stomach.
I know not every mother out there has the super soakers I have but here is what I picked up over the years.
Feminine sanitary napkins, maxi-pads, those nice blood soaking pads of our mothers' works way better and cheaper then those high priced, high tech breast pads.

Most the time I find myself juggling a baby while frantically cutting a pad in half shoving it down my bra and being thankful I am not padding my bra with paper towels to answer the door for the postman.
Got any funny milk leaking stories to share?
