am thinking i might go and treat myself to a nice outfit (obviously still with maternity capabilities) so that the day i come home and parentals and all will be round i can feel nice about myself.

What does everyone else think? are you gonna make the effort or just chuck joggers on. i say i am now, well lets wait and see!!! will i be wasting money getting new top, shoes (oh shoes would be a good idea, a funky pair of flats that i can wear again and again)

Ive just packed a pair of jeans and a sweater into the hospital bag because i doubt ill really be up for getting dressed up lol. But if you feel you can then good on you Go treat yourself XxX

Believe me you dont get dressed up this is deffo the time for comfort nothing else i must look as bad walking out as i did walking in lol

I hadn't really thought that far ahead myself I think if that's what you want then go for it! Shopping is always a good idea

MrsP

Good point!!

I hadn't even thought about anthing for me other than a tooth brush!!

I would definately say something comfy, maybe a new mayching tracky or something. x

I think I'll either go with my fave maternity jeans (uber comfy) and a nice comfy loose top, or a pair of tracksuit bottoms. Once I get home then I can kinda see what I feel up to. If I wanna stay in my trackies then I can and I feel able for puttin in a bit of effort for the visiotrs I can...... to be fair though I am under no illusions that they will be coming to see me, it'll be all baby at that point!

I didn't bother, but we didn't let anyone come over the first night (didn't get released until 4 in the afternoon, by the time we got home it was 5). I was in the hospital for several days, didn't get much sleep while there, and we were tired by the time we got home.

lol... well go for it, bring your outfit. But i'd bring a comfort outfit too just in case you change your mind when you are leaving.

But believe me, the pregnant women I see leaving the hospital DO NOT look at all in any mood to wear anything other then comfort... lol.. I think bettween the labour, pain and uber-aunt flo, they are just happy to be going home.

Most woman do walk out in very comfy clothes. Although I cannot wait to get dressed up again, that day won't be it and it won't come for awhile. I won't have visitors anyhow.

If you do want to buy something nice, I'd probably make sure it's all for comfort hon.

I think ill be comin home in a pair of black trackies and a tshirt. If you fancy getting dressed up then go for it or go for an outfit that looks great but is also comfortable. I was so sore down there the thought of wearing anything like jeans was painful ouch! lol
