And yet for me, it was so comfortable and convenient the first time, that I made sure to buy another for my second delivery. It's so crazy how different people have different experiences!

Yep, SPADFY. Amazing.

I labored fast and then had an emergency c section. Nothing could make me comfortable. Happy I saved $30. The hospital gown was surprisingly comfortable. I also got a preview because I was hospitalized for a night at 33 weeks.

I haven't read everything else but I hated the hospital gowns - they were really scratchy, so I intend to buy one of the pretty pushers. This is my second time around...

You can get these at Baby Blossom in Fairfax, VA.
They're beautiful!

No they're so ugly!!! LOL

One could buy a $10 clearance cotton dress at Target or Old Navy and cut a slit up the front. Boom, done

We call that "date night" in my house.

This made me laugh and laugh.

+1 I am figuratively dying at this thought.

I find it pretty disgusting. Several posters are acting like children. We wonder why some people don't take women seriously. It's because some act like this. Would men ever act this immature? No

Yes, men certainly would.

You know Dr Bozo on this thread is a man no doubt.

No, definitely a woman. She reported and had removed some of the better posts that disagreed with her.

Who would disagree with what a woman wants to wear?
Only you, dr bozo, sir.

Sorry, lady. I'm neither a sir nor Dr. Bozo. I'm firmly in the "wear what you want without judging others" camp.

I have the same instinct. I wonder what % of these are sold to first time mothers

Probably not just first times, but I bet the overlap between the pretty pushers buyers and those seeking push presents is large.

Oh, please.

The name is ridiculous, but the desire to wear your own gown is not. Just stop.

But seriously, all you guys who have given birth, can you imagine yourselves getting out of bed for the first time post-partum, hanging on to the nurse for dear life to use the potty. You know, when they measure your blood mixed pee in that toilet measuring cup thingy? Can you picture yourselves wearing one of those heinous purple ruffled numbers at that very moment? It's hilarious!! I'm laughing my ass off just thinking of it!!!! But by all means, if you don't want to wear the hospital gown, I agree, there are many things more attractive.

Oh what memories... Also nice to remember the gush of blood running down my legs the first time I got up with the help of the nurse and then the mess all over the place. Sweet sweet memories.

I wore the black $25 one and it was really was nbd. Also, no nurses walked me to the bathroom bc I walked myself. I don't really get the theatrics on this topic.

Omg woman, relax. I never said I was trying to look "pretty," I looked like death warmed over. I just wanted comfort and convenience and I got it. The name is stupid, the function was not. Get a grip.
