I wanted a maternity gown for the hospital because I heard how uncomfortable and scratchy the materials of the hospital provided gowns were. I felt a little bougie getting this one but I wanted to be comfortable and I didn’t regret getting it at all. It was so comfortable to be in during my entire labour. It’s flowy and is so buttery soft. The colour isn’t fun or anything but it serves a good purpose. It wasn’t see through at all even though it’s a little thin and the snaps open up a so much you can have your whole chest open for easy skin to skin and nursing right when baby is born.I even continued to use mine after we went home. It was so hard wearing trousers with all the heavy pads and adult diapers and cooling pads with tucks and what not. The gown removed having to deal with putting trousers on and taking them off. It was also so easy to just wake up and pull front down so baby could nurse and I’d just snap them back up with my eyes closed once she was done. I still have this hanging in my closet and will definitely be using it for my next baby. The material didn’t stain at all from my baby’s birth so I won’t need to get a new one.It seems like a silly expense but it’s so worth it.
