Maternity Scrubs?

Cryssteen · August 2014

Should I bother? Or just size up again? My effing pants are killing me today. The kind with the elastic back usually sit too high up on my waist. If I wear them below my belly, I have droopy crotch and some tightness. What are you nurses/medical professionals doing? Scrubs are supposed to be comfortable. :-L

They cost me an arm and a leg (compared to what I usually wear) but the Greys Anatomy maternity scrubs are amazing. And they wash really well, so I didn't have to buy a ton

I also mixed in regular maternity tops with the scrub pants and just put on a scrub coat for the pockets.

I didn't bother. I went up a size again and got draw string pants. I tried the pants under my belly and wore a bella band to cover my belly/help keep my pants up. I did that for 4 months with dd. I just couldn't justify spending the money on maternity scrubs.

I just ordered 2 pairs of Cherokee maternity scrub pants on Amazon last night. They were $18 a piece. The ones I currently have (elastic back, drawstring front) won't stay tied or up.

I broke down and got some Cherokee also. If I'm going to be wearing them for 14 hours a day, 3 nights a week I'm going to be comfortable! I got 3 pair that I'm going to wear on repeat.

I tried just one size bigger, but the legs were huge and way long. It was worth it in my opinion. I'll grab a few plain $5 old navy t-shirts to wear with it when my tops don't fit

I bought "flexi" tops that have elastic stretch sides I bought a couple pairs pants a size up but the way the fit is super uncomfortable. I was able to find some stretchy work-out/sweat type pants that don't really look much different than scrubs and they are super comfortable on my belly.

I sized up.

I have to wear the hospital provided scrubs. I'm still wearing the same size pants I just roll them under my bump this keep from having a saggy crotch. I have been wearing stretchy work out tanks under my scrub top and they help keep my pants up.

I also wear hospital provided scrubs and just roll below belly. I was able to wear them all through both pregnancies with my girls (worked until 38 and 39 weeks when they were born) and expect they'll be fine this time too!

Sometimes I wore the hospital scrub pants and jacket with a regular maternity t-shirt like someone else said, but I was working postpartum at the time...not sure that would work as well in L&D (can't wear clothes from home into the OR...). It sure was comfy that way though!

The Cherokee pants are amazing. They run big though. I just wear tshirts with a white coat but a scrub jacket would work, too.
