What did you wear after delivery ?

Question

Planning to get my L&D bag ready but not sure what to purchase as far as robe, kraftan, button down pj’s.
What did you pack and what was most comfortable? (I plan to breastfeed)

Answer

Stayed in my hospital gown until It was time to go home then I just switched to some comfy sweats and a just a t shirt. With my experience it was just MUCH easier to stay in my hospital gown due to me constantly being checked and all the bleeding and everything it was more convenient.

Answer

Tracksuits pants and a top with buttons for Breast feeding. That's what I wore. No point getting too fancy.

Answer

I packed a few tank tops ( easy to pull the strap down to nurse), a few pair of yoga pants and a hoodie. Really didn’t need much as far as clothes... then of course phone charger, toothbrush.. basic necessities

Answer

I honestly just stayed in the hospital gown the whole time since it was easy for breastfeeding and I had to get checks on my uterus a lot and wasn’t sure if I would bleed on anything. I would recommend a robe if anything and something you don’t care if it gets stained.

Answer

I stayed in the hospital gown until I left. I wore some loose cotton capris and a t shirt home. For the first week at home, I pretty much stayed in a loose gown or lounge pants/nursing sports bra. Healing and learning how to breastfeed was messy and tiring. Didn't want to bother with uncomfortable or annoying apparel.

Answer

Maternity joggers and camis. And massive cheap knickers for fitting maternity pads in 😂 
I stayed in for 3 days - found it very hot in the hospital so layers are good.

Answer

I just bought this nursing night gown from Motherhood maternity. Its super soft!

I also got these lounge pants from there too that I plan on taking with me snd maybe some lounge shorts.

Answer

I put on comfy pants that were sort of tight in good places (to keep the blood where it needed to be and not everywhere else) and a nursing tank. I’m super glad I chose what I felt comfortable in. It made me feel like me again after a very long and difficult labor.

Answer

Hospital gown and then I left the hospital with my old jeans and a shirt that I wore before I got pregnant WORST DECISION EVER! I thought I would have my normal body back but boyyyyy was I wrong. The jeans were cutting off my circulation and adding to the pain I was already feeling. Don’t be like me! Wear something comfortable and loose.

Answer

Big ass shirt, comfy high waist leggings, and slippers. 😎 I plan to get a maternity robe this time to wear in our room while we establish breastfeeding. I HATED the gowns they provide and my clothes weren’t comfortable right away.
