I wear normal pj bottoms with botton up cardigans, or just flannie pj's. If it's hot I wear a bf singlet, though only have 2 so have to rotate them pretty quick if it's hot for more than one or two nights!!
I agree about the bfeeding singlets over normal PJ's pants. I got my pants from Sussan too - they have cool designs. Are the Pj's for all the time or just hospital? I found that I got really really hot in hospital so the singlet was more than enough. At home I just chucked a loose t-shirt or top over for around house at night then took it off in bed cause we had heater on anyway. In summer I only wore singlet too. Still do actually!

: terrible spelling!
Thanks for all the suggestions ladies - keep 'em coming!
I looked at Sussans. Twice - cos i was in denial that i couldn't find something. I guess I thought I should get button down ones... but everything just had a few teensy fiddly buttons at the top but but didn't go all the way down. OR they were shortie pj's and didn't have my size. So saying, I DO have two BF'ing singlets, so could use those... but thought I should save 'em for daytime mebbe.
The hotmilk PJ's look gorgeous, but I think my BB's are too big for them already (i'm an E already and I haven't got milk yet.. ) - their site says up to DD. Plus I'd rather not show quite that much cleavage. As for what i spend... I don't care anymore... I just want something I like!!!!
I guess I didn't want too much of a cami/singlet style - would like to be a smidge covered up for visitors... so I guess mainly I want something to look nice in hossie. Having it once I get home is just a bonus really I figure the hossie's are usually pretty warm - so i should look for a summery style.
I've checked Target, La Figure, Myer, DJ's, Sussans (twice), Kmart. Haven't tried BigW yet. Mebbe tomorrow and I saw some nice ones online at Beautiful Bellies, and they've an outlet at BrandSmart...
Hollye - Sussans did have some nice slippers, I shoulda got some while I was there.
It's at this point my DH would tell me that i'm waaay to fussy for my own good
I wear bf singlets to bed NOW and have for the past 2 months - they stretch over my belly, and I get a lot hotter than DH so they keep me cooler with no ahem pants.
I have just bought some newer pj pants from Big W and Sussans, and replaced one of my BF singlets - the Bonds ones are weird I reckon cos some are padded (WT??) but I have been using the Target ones and they have lasted wonderfully - colours are a bit limited in black and white - but then if you get black and you have visitors they can't see your nipples through them like the white ones
AND
I wouldn't buy a heavy dressing gown for hospital, just a lightweight summer one as they are hot, hot, hot and more for modesty than anything else - try Peter Alexander if you want something a bit more funky and flash.
AND
I have a pastelly purple one and highly offended at the implication I am a Nana ..... but I ain't gunna buy another one for 2-4 days
Myer have some on sale atm...they are around $30. I got a pair to go into hospital and still wear them now cause they have the buttons down the front. They have all sorts of colours and patterns and none of them are nanna-ish.
