Please never buy me this...

Yeah, their slogan is "Don't wear a used drabby gown provided by your hospital... Deliver in Style!" To all of my friends who are labor and delivery nurses, or have had babies, or have even visited anyone in the hospital after they had a baby, can you believe how ridiculous this idea is?!? And they cost $50!!! If I ever take care of anyone who has one of those, I will absolutely insist they are not allowed to wear it in labor. Please, please, pretty please bleed and leak your amniotic fluid on our "used drabby" gowns. For real. Go buy yourself some new pjs or slippers or something that you might actually want to use again in your life. Has anyone actually taken care of someone who wore one of these?

I saw this on a Baby Story! The woman had her own designer gown and the nurse was like, "ummm no." And then she pitched a fit so they let her wear it. she had an easy delivery too. Not that I wished her pain, but after her little tantrum, I kind of did.
