cannot find a nightgown for the hospital...please help!
I have looked everywhere - jcpenney, macy's, motherhood/destination, kohls, target (all online) and cannot find a nightgown and robe for the hospital. Any suggestions for other websites I can look? I'm trying to avoid going to the store because I was ordered to try and stay off my feet as much as possible.
Also, should I maybe look in the plus sizes if I cannot find something in maternity? I would not even know what size to get.
Thanks.

Re: cannot find a nightgown for the hospital...please help!
i know you said you tried motherhood online, but in the store they had a TON of nightgown/robe sets. i bought 2 of them for $30 each. they're pretty comfortable. maybe someone can go to the store for you?
that was the only place i found a gown/robe set.
eta: this is what i bought. i got them all a size larger than normal.

Thanks - I might end up having to go look in a store. That is a great price too.

This is going to sound icky but- out of experience, try for something sort of dark colored if they have it(usually you will have some bleeding) just a little BTDT FYI !!!

I found a simple one on target that I liked!! It was more than I wanted to pay for the nightgown and robe, but it was the style I was looking for. I also bought a pair of night comfy crop pants and then went to jc penney.com and found a shorts/t-shirt pajama set. So I think I will see how those work!!

I have to say- I found the nightgowns from Motherhood to be of very poor quality. I washed them once and they shrunk tp the point that they no longer fit.
This time around I will likely wear very loose fitting yoga pants with a button down PJ top- or a nightshirt that buttons down as well.

I agree - I find not everything from them is of top quality. The one I bought in Target should be nice because it has 7% spandex in it as opposed to all cotton - I can't stand cotton that does not stretch!!!

first, are you sure you want to buy a special hospital one? it is likely to get ruined. second, i own the blue set and please note it runs VERY small.

Re: cannot find a nightgown for the hospital...please help!
I got a few from Walmart (in-store) for cheap - I didn't want to spend a lot of $ on something that would get bloody. I also wanted to say, it hurt so bad to wear pants after my c-section, so keep that in mind. I am so happy I brought gowns with me.

I have the blue Motherhood gown in pink. I bought it for the hospital. They do run small but I got quite a bit of use out of it and it was very comfortable.
