Should I Bring a Maternity Robe to the Hospital?

Packing your hospital bag is one of the last tasks to take care of before the baby arrives. One thing you should consider packing is your own maternity robe.

You should consider bringing your own maternity robe to the hospital because you’ll be more comfortable and will have an easier time nursing. Additionally, you can bring one to match your baby for beautiful photos at the hospital.

Here are my favorite shops that carry the best maternity robes.

You can find this beautiful maternity robe in their shop, along with the matching swaddle for baby.

This is my absolute favorite maternity robe and swaddle set! If I have another baby, this will probably be my top pick.

These robe and blanket sets are stunning. They come in the various colors you see above, and the cotton material is breathable. Also, the robe has pockets which is always a win in my book.

The above peach kimono hospital robe is one of my favorites. It’s so dreamy and would make for the most beautiful hospital photos. It also comes in different colors.

This black maternity gown is a great choice for those looking for a more simple and chic option.

I love this particular gown because it has snap buttons on the back and each side on the front, making nursing or pumping easier. It also comes with cute “push socks” as a little bonus.

Another great option from May and Joy, is this palm leaf robe and swaddle set is one of their current best sellers.

This is such a great option for hospital pictures.

This is a beautiful set with both the delivery robe and a matching swaddle.

Another precious maternity robe and matching swaddle set. I’m obsessed with this shade of green, and it’s such a great gender-neutral color.

This beautiful maternity robe and swaddle comes in shades of mustard and sage.

This color combination and floral print reminds me of a bohemian vibe and it would look beautiful in hospital pictures.

This maternity robe comes with a matching swaddle, baby hat, and a t-shirt for Dad.

Should I bring my own maternity robe to the hospital?

Absolutely! You should bring your own maternity robe to the hospital for a few reasons.

Comfort

You’ll want to wear loose fitting clothing after birth, especially if you have a c-section.

A maternity robe is comfortable and fits loosely. The gowns at the hospital fit horribly and are very uncomfortable.

Nursing

If you choose to nurse or pump, wearing a maternity robe will allow you to do so easily.

Pictures

There will be a lot of pictures taken after baby arrives! Many moms plan a special outfit or swaddle for baby for their hospital pictures. You can choose a maternity robe to match for these pictures!

So what are your thoughts? Should moms bring their own maternity robe to the hospital? Share in the comments!
