Just trackies and a fleece jacket for labour at home (it was June!) and then as soon as I arrived at the FBC I shed my layers to bare skin After the birth (WAY after!) I had undies and a cotton cami (with an elasticised sweetheart neckline for easy pulldown) and a microfibre crop top. I was under the sheets from waist down till the next day to get ready to go home.
I was wearing a maxi dress i bought while pregnant but got way too hot so stripped off anyway. after baby came they put a heated blanket on me to keep me and bubs warm. was so convenient just being naked because baby could be plonked straight on my chest and i figured that your lower half is on display to the world so a pairs of boobs hanging out is no big deal.
I wore my very favourite Triple J T-shirt that I bought when I was in Year 12! I still have it and I still wear it, and if and when I have another baby, I will wear it again for the birth! (Geez I really do love that T-shirt huh!!)
I had DF's tshirt & trackies on coz thats all we had that was loose enough, everything else was uncomfrotable. After I got to the hossy I just wore the T-shirt. It was red so if there were any stains you cant see them. Afterwards I was changed into a hossy gown for surgery & I was in that until the next day, & I just wore trackies & Ts and my winter button up PJs at night for the rest of the hossy stay
With DS1 - I had a nightie on and it didn't get ruined at all. Still wear it now sometimes. It's super comfy!
With DS2 - I couldn't be bothered with putting my own clothes back on after being in the shower so I just put on a hospital gown. I think I had 2 on, one at the front, one at the back.
I had a nightie that I wore, but it got soaked when my waters were broken so then it was into the hospital gown... TBH I wouldn't worry too much about having something, beforehand I stressed about what I was going to wear, but when it is all happening how you look is the last thing you're worrying about.
I was in trackies and a t-shirt but the trackies got soaked when my waters broke so I had a shower and put a hosp. gown on, then just got covered up by the blankets.
TBH I really wasn't all that aware of what I was wearing anyway because there was too many other things going on!
