Pajamas for the hospital - what kind

MAdams728 · March 2013

For after the birth and next day, should I take shirt/pants set, or nightgowns? I generally only wear lounge pants and tops, but I was thinking that a nightgown might be more convenient? I dont want to stay in hospital gowns the whole time, especially when visitors come, but I dont want to ruin any of my own clothes at the same time.

If you're going to take something, take the nightgown so the nurses can check you easier.

With DD I just stayed in the hospital gown. Although I wasn't a fan (who is?) of them, I just didn't want o chance ruining my own things.

Night gowns. It will make it easier for nurses to check you.

I wore black yoga pants and tank tops the whole time.

Nightgowns, it is. That is what I was thinking, too, that they would be easier. And they would be better in case of a c-section, which is something I wouldnt have thought of. Thanks!

CS Mama here and the first time I wore the hospital gown the entire time. The second one, I changed out of that gown the second I was left along and wore yoga pants and a nursing tank. It made me feel more human. This time will be mor

I never ruined any of my clothes. Probably the hospital gown while I was giving birth but that's it. Gowns might be easier for the nurses but I really don't care to make it easier on them. I want to be comfortable and I'm comfortable with yoga pants and a

I've always taken 2 pairs of pj pants (c-section so I stay a little longer). One pair usually gets something on them. I wear them under the gown they give me when no one is around and when people come I put on a nursing bra and shirt or tank. I also bring

I bled like crazy afterward and leaked on the mat thing underneath me. I will be wearing the gown until its time to head home.

I've always worn the gown for the whole stay and I plan to again. If you wear nightgowns, will you be pulling it up around your neck to BF? Or take if off completely? I felt like all I did in the hosp was BF, so I was glad for the hosp gown with snaps <im

Night gown if anything, till your ready to be dressed. Our birthing centre actaully reccomends that you just use their linens, so yours don't accidentally get picked up.

MrsJ723 · March 2013

I had a c section and just wore the gown the whole time. It was easier for the nurses to check my incision, plus I had an On Q pump which I don't think would have been compatible with pants. I did take a robe for walking the halls. I plan to do the same t

The nurse who taught our L&D class told us not to bother bringing anything that "most" women just wear their hospital gowns the entire time. I will probably wear the gown but bring my own robe as well.

AshleyHJ · March 2013

For me personally, I wanted to change out of the hospital gown as soon as possible. I was advised to wear a nightgown so the nurses could check me and that worked out fine, but I may go the nursing tank and pants route for this time around. Ei

How often do the nurses actually check you? I was thinking that a nightgown would be a huge pain when trying to BF...

I'm planning on bringing two nightgowns and a robe in case one of them gets dirty. I just got gowns that had easy access for breastfeeding.

This.

metzy144 · March 2013

I'm having a c/s and will just stay in a gown the whole time. I bought one to wear after delivery that is cuter and comfier than the ones they provide. I'll bring my own robe, yoga pants and a nursing tank to wear but I doubt I will use real clothes until

Ugh, are there any nursing nightgowns for under $40?! Seriously, this is ridiculous.

I bought a couple of cheap nursing nightgowns and plan to bring a robe with me. They're all black/gray colors so I'm not too worried about getting stains on them from anything. A friend of mine said to get nursing cami's and she wore them with
