The Maryam Labour Gown

The question on every expectant mums lips: ‘What do you wear when you give birth in hospital?’ 

Pregnancy was already tough, now you have to think about a labour outfit that preserves your modesty but is also practical for healthcare professionals to access areas they need to. Any new mum will tell you they left their dignity at the labour room door and maintaining modesty was the last thing on their list. 

Giving birth to your little blessing will no longer be an awkward encounter with healthcare professionals, but it will be the beautiful start to your new chapter as a mum. The Maryam Labour Gown has been cleverly designed to preserve your modesty but has openings in all of the necessary places for IV and epidural access, monitors and machines, and most importantly skin-to-skin contact. It also features a built in hijab that can be adjusted with a magnet, perfect if you need to quickly pop it on with short notice. 

The Maryam Labour Gown is crafted from the most beautiful and buttery soft material that has a generous stretch.

Features: 

• Dual zips from shoulder to wrist for IV access and monitors 
• Dual zips on the chest area for skin-to-skin when baby is born
• Single zip on the reverse from middle of upper shoulders to base of spine for epidural access 
• Wrap dress design with ties on the inside to maximise privacy 
• Hijab included, attached on the reverse with poppers and invisible magnet hijab can be secured with when in use
