Does anyone know if you can wear your own delivery gown or night gown for the delivery process at NWH?

    no experience there, but just curious why you would want to? it's going to get GROSS with blood/fluid.  I wore the hospital johnny for the whole time and didn't think twice about it.

    I delivered at NWH in 2008 and wore my own underwear in the delivery room, which was a big mistake - they got destroyed (it was my first child and didn't realize how messy the process is)!  I wore a johnny for the delivery process then switched to my own nightgown while I was recovering in the hospital.

    Wear their gowns - between leaking breasts and bleeding post-delivery... major ick.  you don't want your stuff to get all stained.

     

    But if you really want to - yes, they do say you can bring your own.  have you gotten your pre-registration packet?  its got lots of helpful info about delivering there.  you can pick it up right at the info booth or up on the fifth floor
