Is this ridiculous? Or is it just me?
I came across this while lurking on another board and it boggles my mind that someone would spend money on this.

Agree
Are you effing kidding me?! I was completely happy with the hospital gown...and honestly, there was a good stretch of time between the 22hr and the 36hr of my labor that I was in fact nude. I'd taken a bath, and just never really put something back on, because at that point, I just didn't care (TMI, sorry)
Yeah, I didn't even time to put on a friggen gown.
That's ridic.

You better take pictures! I wanna see your hair did and your make up done perfectly while you're pushing!

Dumb.
In my case, I was naked except for a bikini top (and then a sports bra when I got out of the tub.) And I probably looked far less ridiculous than I would have wearing one of those things.
I'm pretty sure the only buyers for this stuff are first time moms though. I remember wanting my toenails painted nicely and my legs shaved for the birth. Once the contractions hit, I didn't care if I had the gnarliest toes in the world and a forest growing from the waist down.
For you, MB!:

I think they're cuter than a hospital gown, sure. But I personally was in NO SHAPE to be putting on anything cute or even thinking of that when I was in labor.
Also, I was cold enough as it was in a regular hospital gown. I think I'd freeze in this little halter get-up.

Yup. Now I've seen it all.

I knew she would be one to use these. I think this is my favorite part of her entry "...and those who feel that childbirth is a special enough event to wear a special gown." Are there women who don't think childbirth is a special event? Is the baby coming out of you not special enough so you need a fancy gown to throw away too? This woman is maddening.
I will say, if someone got me one as a shower gift or something I wouldn't not bring it along but I would never go out and purchase a $24-$28 fancy hospital gown just to throw it away.
Sure, it's special. It's also bloody and gory and painful as hell. Insanity, I say.
Stand up for something you believe in.
