Omg, at 36+4 I'm in the "any day now" bracket 😱 How did that happen?

I've packed maternity leggings and am planning to take maternity jeans too to come home.

What’s everyone planning to wear (or wore for the mamas who have graduated) to come home from hospital? I don’t know if trackies are too casual but I can’t imagine wanting anything tight? 🤣
I like the idea that you could be too casual leaving hospital ❤ Whatever is comfy, the boohoo jersey dungarees is what I wore and they were perfect.

I wore maternity leggings and a big baggy top. Lots of people go home in pyjamas though 🤷🏼‍♀️ I wouldn’t overthink it

I wouldn't worry about being too casual. Many I've seen leave in slippers and fluffy dressing gowns

Trust me ladies, when you are carrying out a freshly popped baby, that the only thing people are looking at when you leave! They won’t even notice you because your baby will be so teeny and adorable!

Whatever hasn’t been used in my bag already! Too much more important to think about!

100% this. I probably could have walked out in the blood stained nightie I gave birth in and no one would have batted an eyelid. You're invisible when in the presence of a teeny little squishie.

The maternity wards have a direct link to THE SUN. They are absolutely boiling! Unless you want it to cover up, I wouldn’t take a dressing gown, you won’t need it for heat!

I took tracksuit bottoms but ended up leaving in big baggy shorts and an old t shirt with my denim jacket chucked over the top to hide my leaky boobs and lack of breast pads!

We had three days in hospital though so by the time we were allowed to leave I didn’t care what I looked like I just wanted to get out as quick as I could in case they changed their mind 😂

Just ordered a black button down nighty for hospital! I’m thinking I’ll probably go home in lounge wear and a coat because it’ll be freezing!

Was anyone else not sure if they were having Braxton hicks? Or would I defo know it was them? I thought the baby just sometimes stretched out and made me feel really tight now I’m thinking maybe it could be them 🤷🏽‍♀️

I've never used a dressing gown. I bought a thin one for my first, taken it every birth, never worn it 😂

It's so hot in there

Don't worry! Everyone else is the same. Especially during pregnancy!
I was having to sit down at the top of the stairs every time I went up 😂 and I used to go running 4 times a week before pregnancy haha

I agree with @WhatABore the end of pregnancy is not the time to be worrying about your fitness, we are all wheezing and lumbering about the same way! I could barely walk the length of myself from about 30 weeks, and was almost at a standstsill I was that slow 🤣
