Nightdress for hospital and nursing

Please help me MN. My lovely DSis is due to give birth to her first DC (twins) next month by ELCS. It's likely she'll be staying in hospital for an extended amount of time. I'd really like to get her a pretty, loose, cotton nightdress / nightshirt (I remember PJs rubbing on my CS wound when I had my DS), in a darker colour (I was pretty paranoid about wearing light colours for the first couple of days post birth Blush) and with a button front / nursing front as she's planning on BFing. She was saying the other day when we were discussing hospital bags that she couldn't find anything nice and had ended up getting a couple of really boring nighties, so I wanted to surprise her and get her something nice. I've had a look on the internet but nothing jumps out at me. Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

I have no suggestions but I'm shamelessly placemarking because I need one too Grin

Depending on your budget my fav specific nursing nightie is by boob design, organic cotton and so so soft. It doesn't have the fiddly lift up and find the stupid slit thing it's literally lift top up and pull down which I imagine is easier for twins/section. If budget is tight...primark shirts are easy & loose with lots of choice of colours/patterns.
There's a Facebook page called 'can I breastfeed in it?' Which has loads of suggestions for this too 🙂
