Did you wear the hospital gown or clothes when in the hospital?? TIA

Hospital gown was much easier. I asked for a 2nd gown and wore that backwards to create a bathrobe, so I could walk the halls without giving a show.

Hospital gown the first night. I took a shower in the am and put my own clothes on.

I wore the hospital gown the first night and then the next day when they said I could go home, I took a shower and put on my own comfy clothes. (no bra! haha)

Hospital gown. I had an IV pole to maneuver and a drain to deal with. Hospital gowns are designed to accommodate that, your regular clothes are not. Plus, do you want to get blood, IV fluid, drainage on your own clothes? I didn't! Just get a second gown and wear it facing backward when you go out walking the halls. That way you won't accidentally flash your fellow patients and their visitors.

Thank you!! I will get 2 gowns and bring cozy clothes for way home. I will skip the hospital shower and enjoy one when I get home.

i wore a hospital gown on top and once the foley was out, put my own lounge pants on to make walking the halls easier

The shower in the hospital ended up feeling amazing. I had a lot more energy once I showered. I spent two days in the hospital and showered the day after surgery. I would totally take the shower if you can. It helps with pain and feeling normal again.

I skipped the hospital shower as well, but wonder if I would have felt better if I'd taken one? I definitely say wear the hospital gown--i went through a couple of johnnies because my drain and wick would leak on them. I definitely was glad not to have that ick on my own stuff.

I wore the gown plus some paper undies they gave me because I was near the end of my menstrual cycle(sorry tmi) and then brought a robe to drape over my backside.

2 gowns. I felt fine. I showered before I went home.

Two gowns but brought clean clothes to go home in I also brought my own slippers to walk the halls. I too had a shower before going home gave me the energy to get home.

Re: shower - I always took one in the hospital after my c-sections and it felt amazing!

One gown and some surgical tape to keep it closed.

two hospital gowns - one in the front and one in the back.

Hospital gown. I wore a robe over it when I walked. I was so out of it, clothes were the last thing on my mind.
