Default Will I Be Able to Wear My Regular Clothes Home from Hospital?

What kind of clothes should I take to the hospital for going home in? I am so sick of my maternity clothes. But will I fit into my regular clothes for the trip home?

It is VERY unlikely that you’ll fit into your old jeans for the trip home. Even if you didn’t gain a lot of weight during your pregnancy, your uterus won’t completely contract for a while. And you may very well be swollen from IV fluids as well. For my first two kids, I left the hospital in the same clothes I was admitted in – knit lounge pants and a maternity t-shirt. With my last pregnancy, I did buy something new to put on for my discharge date. But it was just a new pair of yoga pants and a cute extra large top to go with it. So, I totally understand being over maternity clothes. Go get something new and cute but make sure it’s still plenty big and very comfy!

It will be difficult for you to put your casual clothes after child Birth I think they may not fit you.You will have to wear some maternity type clothes.
