What do you wear post labour to go home?

It says loose clothing online, although I see lots of people wear leggings.. do leggings count? Are they meaning keep your PJ's on ? Is it a joggers and hoodie situation? Would a dress be best ? If you could tell me what you wore so I know my best and most practical options that would be fabulous hehe🙃☺️

Whatever you want! I wore joggers both times, but honestly, whatever you’re comfy in

I wore leggings, tshirt, jumper and trainers!

I wore joggers, definitely didn’t feel comfortable putting leggings on!

Honestly wear what you were most comfortable in while on your period. For me I chose to wear my pregnancy leggings which weren’t too tight on my tummy but still were supportive enough to hold my giant pad/diaper in place. That and a sweater were perfect 👍🏻

Just whatever you’re comfortable in, you’re going to feel like you have a golf ball between your legs and you’re going to be wearing a big pad so something you can wear big granny knickers with and feel comfy 🤣 I wore joggers and a vest I think to come home in

I came home with a catheter (natural birth) which was unexpected. I could not have worn leggings or anything remotely tight. I’d say baggy and comfortable x

It was winter. I had my doc martens, a black velvet christmasy maternity dress and my maternity leggings. I wanted to look nice encase I was in the baby leaving hospital photos. As long as it’s not something that digs into a potential c section wound and allows for swelling of the ankles, you are good.

Wear whatever you’re more comfortable in! Anything tight around the belly might be uncomfortable but it’s whatever you choose! I wore a T-shirt and leggings around the hospital the whole time, and wore some home too last time and will probably do the same this time 🥰

100% whatever you want. If you have a c-section, I suggest a dress so you don’t have to worry about pants rubbing on your incision (undies are easier to adjust). I wore a dress but my friends who had fall/winter kids wore sweats or something similar. It’s all about comfort.

I wore loose trousers, a tshirt and jumper. I’d put my maternity jeans on at first (!) but trousers were just comfier as my legs were swollen for a couple of days.

Leggings, joggers, tracksuit. Whatever you find comfortably and easy to move in. I've seen dresses and all sorts before x

I brought a shirt dress and I felt so sensitive afterwards I wore my pyjamas out lol x

I took leggings and a hoodie to come home in and some crocs, I had an emergency c section and I was so swollen, my leggings and crocs barely went on! I wish I’d have taken some floaty trousers and flip flops or something x

I wore a long add jumper in the winter, with leggings. Next one I’m due in summer so will probably wear wearing activewear shorts or a dress.
