Just was wondering what everyone is wearing home? I've heard you should bring clothes that you would fit into at 6 months preggo. Does anyone have any ideas for me?
Is this something people plan? Whatever I happen to put in my bag before I go to the hospital, I suppose. Im one of those people who isn't packing until I'm actually ready to leave for the hospital. It's just nms. I'm a procrastinator by nature.

With DS I wore home yoga pants and a fitted mat tee over a nursing tank. I'll probably wear something very similar this time.
Nursed without dairy, egg, soy, peanut, treenut, fish, shellfish or beef for over a year.
Currently tandem nursing dairy, egg, and shellfish free.
DS born via emergency c/s after 20 hrs of labor. DD successful VBAC!
I made the mistake of bringing jeans and a materinity top that I wore when I was first showing. The jeans didn't fit me at the end, so I don't know what made me pack them. The top was fine, but the jeans squeezed me the whole way home. Last time I took a long cotton maternity dress and I'll do the same this time. Perfect if it's hot, but something I can layer with a sweater if it's cold. I'm going to pack at about 36 weeks. You just never know!

Same here with DS. I am so wearing a dress home. Something loose and free flowing. I have feeling summer will be here before I know it.

I have a tank style, below the knee, flowy micro-cotton dress that I'm going to wear. It is super comfy and I can layer it with the cardigan sweater that I'm taking to the hospital with me in the off chance that it is a bit chilly outside. I will have yoga pants with me to wear, but I'm thinking this will be my come home outfit.

Probably yoga pants and a tank top, or a dress. It's a 8 minute ride home from the hospital, so I'm not really looking to get all dolled up.
this exactly. I just want something light and comfortable. starting to pack my bag. baby is packed for and me now just need to pack a change of clothes for husband and little things I might have forgotten
I'm assuming it's going to be fairly warm out so I plan on wearing my black maxi dress that I've loved this entire pregnancy. I'll also bring a nursing tank and yoga pants if I don't feel like wearing the dress when I leave.
Last time I brought my maternity jeans and I totally regretted it. My belly practically disappeared and I had to hold my pants up the entire way home. I'll definitely be bringing a dress or something adjustable and comfy.
Either a comfy maternity dress or the yoga pants/nursing bra combo. both in whatever size I go into the hospital wearing. I would rather it be too big than too small.

Probably some sweatpants/loose yoga pants and a simple tshirt. No big deal - I'll just want to be comfortable.

I'll be wearing a nursing compression tank, a maternity top & some mat jeans probably.

LOL, me too!
I didn't regret wearing jeans and I had a c/s and a 90 mile drive home.
Just sayin'...
Really!! I couldn't wear anything comfortably around my waist for like 2 weeks. Even my nursing tanks felt like they were rubbing too much.
So, I guess the moral of the story is bring a couple of options. Since you never know what's going to feel comfortable.
I'm wearing a long cotton dress...
And yes I've already started packing my bags, I'm a planner by nature haha. I have a little list with checkmarks beside what's already packed :P.
