Nighties for hospital bag.

Laura--x · Feb 11th, 2009, 16:35 PM

Im going shopping on friday to start buying some stuff for my hospital bag.

Im in size 12 clothes atm. Im gonna go into primark and get some cheap nighties to give birth in and for after birth, but what size do i buy? In primark i buy size 12-14 clothes. Should i buy that size or should i go up a size?

I got a couple from Walmart and got way bigger sizes then I am just because I want to be comfy and not feel all restrained and tied down by a tight nighty. I would say go up a size or 2. Your bump wont be gone fully right away so you'll want something big and roomy.

Yeah wld be inclined to agree, go up a size or two. If I'm buying 'normal' clothes I have been buying 2-3 sizes bigger, but I like to know there's space there knowing how big i got with my ds.

I got some today, £3 each in Primark! I just got normal size and they fit over bump fine,wearing one now with jammie bottoms, so comfy and I am not a nightie person! Just seeing your 29 weeks now so maybe go up a size cause you dont know how big your bump will end up

Im just not sure how much bigger ill get! i think i'll get 2/3 in size 14-16 and if i need bigger when the time comes ill get someone to get me the bigger ones lol
