@ZombieBullfrogHoller: I feel the same way about hospital gowns-I f-ing hate them. As soon as I showered, I put on my PJs, and they were all "why do you want to wear your own clothes?!" Um, because I'm not sick?? If I had a reason to wear one, great. But I didn't, and I wanted to feel human!

@LovelyPlum: Yes, I think I have the association of hospitals and the gowns and being sick and I wanted to distance myself away from that mindset as much as possible.

I labored and delivered in the shirt I showed up in, it was black and beige striped with ruched sides. Hospital gown when I was brought up to the recovery room and I wore it for the next 4 days, lol.

I wore my own fuzzy robe from home for most of my labor. When things seemed to be getting close, they advised I might want the hospital gown on just so I didn't ruin my robe. But then I got in the tub anyway and I just stayed naked after that while I delivered. I could not have cared less at that point.

Thanks everyone for sharing! Love hearing all the crazed and funny birthing tidbits. I thought it might be fun to get one of those cute labour gowns online but at $50 it doesn't really seem worth it. With Lo1 I wore the standard gown, so I suppose thats good enough for LO2
But will def be getting something cute to put on while in recovery and welcoming visitors!
