The dressing gown in the maternity hospital is the basic clothing of the expectant mother, and her choice should be treated responsibly. The convenience of these clothes is hard to overestimate. In summer, the bathrobe guarantees ventilation to the body, and on winter days it always warms. After the birth of the baby, these clothes will come in handy at home in the long period of breastfeeding. Therefore, you need to choose only a very high quality and convenient thing.
Which is better to take?
When choosing a dressing gown style, focus on your taste, however, do not give priority to long models: they hamper the movement, plus going to the toilet may not be very comfortable.
Short sleeves will be more convenient than long ones: they will not cling to unnecessary items, provide ventilation for arms and chest.
Options with a belt look more aesthetically pleasing, emphasize the waist.
The clasps of the dressing gown should be as comfortable as possible, because they will have to be used several times a day (for example, to feed the baby). In this regard, lightning is the best option. You should not choose a model without fasteners at all, only on one belt. Before childbirth, this will be extremely inconvenient: a large belly will open the dressing gown, and you will be constantly nervous.
In specialized salons for expectant mothers, a zipper bathrobe usually comes with a special shirt. A shirt is also a mandatory item of clothing in the hospital, you will need to wear it under a bathrobe. So that every time you breastfeed your baby you do not need to pull her up, they make a large stretch neckline, a feeding slot or a special clip on the shirts. You only need to unzip a little zipper on your bathrobe and give your baby a chest
As for pajamas, not all maternity hospitals are allowed to wear them, and the elastic can put pressure on a large belly. In this regard, the best solution - special nightie, large, not restricting movements, with a deep neckline for night feedings or with a top unfastened. You can also get them in specialized stores.
Fabric structure
The material of the dressing gown that you take with you to the hospital should naturally be completely natural. This, of course, is cotton, but you can also purchase options from bamboo and linen. Recently, products made of environmentally friendly material have been popular (they are also offered by salons for expectant mothers).
Another unique fabric is the capitone, perfect for a woman in labor and a nursing mother. This is a natural canvas made of cotton fabric, consisting of two or three layers, between which a thin insulation is laid. Capiton is distinguished by a characteristic pattern in the form of rhombuses or squares. Such bathrobes are indispensable in the cold season, while they look very aesthetically pleasing.
An important thing is the smell of a bathrobe. Artificial additives often give an unpleasant smell to clothes, for us it can be elusive, but it can be unpleasant for an infant to breast feed.
If the dressing gown has lace, it should also be made of natural materials, be soft so as not to irritate the skin of the mother and baby.
Salons for expectant mothers offer such a thing as sterile sets for women in labor (this is a dressing gown plus a chemise for breastfeeding). This is a medical product that has passed mandatory certification. This set is made from 100% high quality cotton, packed in a special bag with an individual box and sterilized.
Beautiful models
