To ask what you wore straight after giving birth ?

Maternity leggings, big black cotton granny pants and breastfeeding tshirts from Smallshow off amazon

I had a lot of maxi style maternity dresses that were also for breastfeeding, so I wore a lot of those. Looking back at pictures though, with my second who was spring I was also wearing normal skirts, tights, heels etc after about a week. Luckily my bump went down really quickly, though it was later that I put on weight again!

I went out a lot from getting home, so didn't really want slobbing about clothes. Bleeding was minimal and gone by day 10, no weird smells, no sweating and no leaking boobs. I got lucky!

Gmaternity or post partum leggings and a t shirt

Leggings, vest tops and jumpers/hoodies mainly.

Granny knickers, Sweaty Betty yoga pants and a loose top (I had some button-up vests which were great for breastfeeding).

I could get into my usual leggings immediately, and jeans after about three weeks, but I had a c-section and didn't want anything pressing on the scar for about a month.

I was a nurse so scrubs worked for a few weeks.

I wore maternity or nursing clothes for a long while after. I’m 2 years pp and still not back to post baby size so I have gradually invested in new clothes, but for the first few months I just stuck to my maternity clothes. I found some really nice brands that sold lovely nursing friendly bits. My go to was leggings and nursing friendly tops, floaty dresses (it was summer) but equally if it was winter could have done tights and dresses. I ditched the maternity jeans and bought nice jeggings as the mat jeans got too big quickly but buying regular jeans felt too restricting on my tummy. I wore high waisted leggings (c-section) and a nursing tunic dress with sandals to come home from hospital as DS was born in a heatwave.

I came home from hospital in an oversized tracksuit and wore leggings and baggy T-shirts and sweatshirts for a while.

I left the hospital in a clean pair of pyjamas because I was too tired to get dressed and it was the evening.

After that I wore my maternity leggings and oversized T-shirts/jumpers as that’s what I felt most comfortable in. In all honesty I didn’t stop wearing my maternity leggings as they were so comfy my little one is almost 1. I’m now pregnant again and I’ll be doing the same thing with this pregnancy/after the birth.

With my first, I was straight back into pre pregnancy jeans. (I wouldn’t get into them now, 20 years later 😂)

With the second, I made a point of wallowing a bit, so wore leggings or loose trousers for a couple of weeks. If you get back into normal clothes, it gives the message you’re back to normal when you should in fact be recovering, despite what you look like.

Jogging bottoms then normal clothes (didn’t put on that much weight due to much puking 🤢). I never wanted to see my maternity clothes again, let alone wear them.

Agree that you’ve grown a human and don’t need to hide anything.

I just wore hospital gowns in the hospital, the front opening one over the back opening one.

Maternity jeans and leggings, with loose T-shirts and light tops.

Whatever my husband managed to find! We were due to move house before due date, but DD turned up 6 weeks early. As I'd grown out of things, I'd chucked them in a packing box, since I clearly wouldn't need them until after we moved. I had to send him home from hospital with instructions to find the box, and a guess at what might fit.

Someone gave me this tip once and I pass it on as much as I can because it made all the difference to me post birth!
Disposable Tena Lady Incontinence Pants instead of big pants/big pads. So much more comfortable, didn't have the worry of leaking and less washing!

I wore my maternity clothes as long as possible but to actually leave the hospital first was PJ's and second was leggings.

Joggers and baggy t shirts

I had winter babies. Leggings and baggy jumpers. It was easy to hide under a coat.

Leggings, massive pants, tunic top with access for bf

Maternity leggings to go home. My maternity jeans wouldn't stay up once there wasn't a baby in there!

PJs at home in the first week or so, then my normal jeans.

Dresses are a no for breastfeeding, if you plan to.
Wear separate tops and bottoms. Go home in something stretchy. Maternity leggings work for the first couple of weeks as things shrink down.

A tracksuit to wear home (the irony).

I lived in leggings and my maternity jeans up until where I am now at 6 months pp and I'm finally down to my pre pregnancy weight.

Mainly leggings and vests with a shirt over for easy breastfeeding.

I wore maternity trousers for a few days then soft jersey trousers for a few weeks
Most of my " baby weight" was actually fluid.
I'd say wear anything comfortable whether that's a dress or leggings.with a T shirt.
Congratulations in advance

I wore my maternity clothes.

Why would you need need ‘hide’ your body? That’s really sad.

I carried on wearing my maternity clothes - I had to actively decide to stop as I looked such a mess most of the time.

Hard to move on from wearing leggings all the time. Waistbands are a nightmare.
