It looks like it has a very light padding in the picture and it does not at all also it kinda points your breasts out to the sides in a strange sort of way. there is not way its going to hide nursing pads at all. its very very thin. it does run sort of small like a previous review had said so i ordered and I when i normally wear an H which that turned out the right size. the snaps seem to work fine i can hook and unhook them with one hand. My little one isn't hear yet so i can't say exactly how much i like it. only that i wore it for a day just to test it and it was comfortable enough. just like i said very thin and kinda makes your breasts look pointy.
