    I really didn't want to be naked so I wore a nighty up until I had my epidural when they made me wear a hospital gown. While I was pushing (which was about 2 hours I think). I got annoyed and pulled the gown off and was naked. I didn't care then!

    I went into hospy in a comfy pair of gym pants and a long sleeved shirt, and laboured in that until my waters broke everywhere!!!
    Than i laboured for a bit in the shower but hated it, the shower was annoying and i hated being naked, so than i went into a hospital gown, which was very comfy!!!

    Thanks everyone. It sounds like it's a pretty personal choice which can change on the day depending on the mood. I'll prepare accordingly
