I swore I would be fully clothed during labour as I am a little shy about my body. I was induced and instructed to wear nothing but a gown (which didn't impress me). I was also restircted to the bed (blerg) and was insistent (in the beginning) that the blankets be covering me as well. That lasted a whole 20 minutes! LOL. At one point the midwife tried to pull the blankets back up and I kicked them right back off again!!!!
I also thought I'd be embarrassed when they did their checks throughout the labour and after baby was born but when they changed my pad (I had an epidural and also a C-Sect so couldn't attend to that for a while) and took out my catheter, I couldn't have cared less!!!!!!! It was the last thing on my mind!!!!
