Did you bring your own birthing gown?

Question

I'm considering bringing my own birthing gown to the hospital. Maybe not to actually give birth in but to change into shortly after. With my first child I HATED the ugly uncomfortable gowns they kept giving me, and they all had holes for breast feeding so I felt like I was going to expose myself to my visitors. Wondering your opinions on the situation?! And if you did buy your own, where did you get it from?

Answer

I'll bring a robe but that's it. I bled through everything the first time and I remember being really glad that I didn't bleed on my own clothes.

Answer

Never packed anything to labour and birth in. I usually end up nude because I get so hot. 
I have packed a cotton dressing gown for night time feeds.

Answer

Not a birthing gown but definitely bringing clothes for after. After my second was born I unfortunately flashed my exhusband's grandpa and his two friends (who were strangers to me and unwelcome anyway). I was mortified.

Answer

I didn't pack anything for labor and delivery, only the trip home and I'll be doing it the same this round as well. I will probably take a robe but thats it. I went through about 3/4 gowns after I delivered because I was bleeding so much so I'd rather not ruin my clothes when I can just use a hospital gown.

Answer

I wore comfy pants, a bralette, and camisole while in labor. Wear whatever makes your comfortable!

Answer

My mom made me two gowns. I wore one for delivery and changed into the other for that night (my daughter was born at 8:36pm). The next morning I showered and changed into comfy clothes that were easy to nurse in.
