RE: Laboring in Style, Recovering in Comfort - Gownies & Pretty Pushers
Nice! Those look like a good investment! How many more babies will you have in them? ;) Many years ago, before my 2nd was born, I made myself a hospital gown. It even had pearl snaps. I made it out of whichever fabric I had the most of at the time and liked.
Then I stopped having babies at the hospital. I labored with the other 3 in the water and just wore a sports bra type thing I found at WM. Super comfy and worked.
I also made myself a "hooter hider" and it's one of the things I'll make for other moms who plan to nurse. Here in Panama, I've seen ONE. They don't care anything about covering up in the slightest here!!
I was totally okay with using this if anyone was around. My SIL even borrowed my hospital gown when she had one of her kids. :) Can't wait until your girlie arrives. JUNE 11!!!! (That's the date I'm putting my SBD on.) ;)
Thanks! They really are a good investment. Haaa!!! Oh you’re so funny...there will be no more buns in this oven Lol!! 😂😅
Okay WOW!!! You made both of those??? 😳 You are so skillful!! I love the colors of the hospital gown, it is so pretty. What material was that? It looks shiny! I think I would have just wore a sports bra too if I birthed in a pool.
My mom made my nursing cover for my first baby and I wore it for the second one too. I then had to give it away to someone that really needed it. Now I am about to buy the one that has like a firm ring along the neck area so that I can easily see her while nursing. Lol so they jusy pull out and get to feeding there huh!! I have never been comfortable with just popping them out in public, I have to be covered in some kind of way!
So you say June 11th? We shall see! She might be coming sooner, I just feel it! Thanks for sharing these pics, you are one handy lady!! 😘
Lol - fun times. Yes, the fabric was kind of shiny. It was in my stash, so no telling what kind it was, but it was kind of thick. My nursing cover has a little boning in it to be able to look at the baby. Always nice - I made myself quite a few of them just to have a variety (and used them as blankets as well at times). I hear that these Milk Snob covers are nice and multi functional as well. The lady who makes them is from my home town (Allen, TX). Yes, it's crazy to watch women just sitting in church, on the side of the road, at a party...nursing without a cover. We have this one friend........... Lol. June 11 isn't that far off!!! You can wait...and then name her Kama after her date twin. ;)
Lol yes that’s what it’s called...boning! 👌🏽
I just ordered a Baby K’tan that is similar to the Milk Sobs which are nice by the way. I didn’t get it for nursing though, mainly for wearing the baby. I have never wore my babies before but now with having an almost terrible two running around on top of homeschooling I just have to have my hands free. I hear they really help put the baby to sleep and keep them comfortable up next to you.
Oh okay I see why we’re shooting for June 11th now!!! 😄😉 Lol @ you can wait!!! 😂😂😂💕
Yes, baby wearing is great!! I hope that you like it. I think it will definitely help with homeschooling and chasing a few kids around at the same time. :)
Haaa!! Yes I hope so too!! I definitely need my hands free at all times lol!
"hooter hider" OMG dying 😂 That's by far the funniest thing I read today!!
It's a real thing my friend... hooter hider :)
