NWOT Kindred Bravely Universal Labor and Delivery Gown Small/Medium/Large The front opens completely for fetal monitoring, ultrasounds, C-section incision inspections, and skin-to-skin contact (since there are two columns of Velcro, the opening can be folded back to protect your baby’s sensitive skin), while the back opening allows for easy epidural placement. The snaps along both shoulders mean it can be used as a nursing nightgown both at the hospital and at home, and the two large pockets are perfect for your phone and other essentials. Since the gown has no hard-to-tie strings down the back, you’ll be more comfortable in bed and won’t give any unintentional peeks while walking the maternity ward.
