Breastfeeding coaches and nurses at the hospital LOVED this!  Recieved so many compliments on this gownie.  I love it too, was a nice change from the hospital gowns after labor.  Helped me feel a little less gross, and a lot more cute looking while being super practical.  Good for skin to skin, and breastfeeding.  Baby enjoyed skin to skin in this.
I had a vaginal birth, and this made going to the bathroom (which is difficult enough as is after popping out a babe) a breeze!  Hospital gowns had those ties in the back, which are a pain & I can't reach to tie, so they were always falling off my shoulders.  These gownies are fantastic because they have snaps everywhere!  Which I could work with, provides more modisty, and independent convenience.
Been using this after the hospital too, helps make breastfeeding easier when waking up groggy at 2am.  Everything can be done with one hand.
