Designer Hospital Gowns For Moms-To-Be
Have you heard of this new trend? It’s possible to deliver your child in a beautifully designed hospital style gown or outfit!
The company I checked out had gowns with a print or a checked pattern. Gowns made from organic cotton were also available. You can even have your gown monogrammed if you desire! These gowns would be perfect for the delivery room or even if you have an extended hospital stay pre-birth. I remember having an extended hospital stay with my first child pre-birth due to complications. It was so depressing to be there in the first place, especially since I had to stay on the maternity ward. I think something as simple as a cute hospital gown could have certainly helped my mood.
I have mixed emotions about using a purchased gown for the birthing experience. I suppose it’s because during one labor, the hospital actually misplaced all of my belongings on the way from the labor room to the birthing room. While they found my baby items and toiletries, all of my clothing was gone. I never did get my “coming home” outfit back. Because of this, I feel you should not bring anything to a hospital that you aren’t willing to “lose”.
Another reason why I preferred using hospital gowns at least for those few days postpartum was because those gowns got very messy! It was easy to just get a fresh gown when the one I was wearing got stained. It was also nice to not have to worry about laundering those stains either!
I’m undecided I guess you could say! I love the idea, but being a practical kind of gal, I’m not sure that I could justify purchasing a special gown which would probably get stained or ruined during or shortly after labor.
What do you think? Would you buy a special gown for your baby’s delivery?
