on my first pregnancy,when my son was born they asked me for a vest and sleepsuit,on my last pregnancy my twins were 9wks early so went to scbu for the first week they only had a nappy on,after that they dressed them in there own sleepsuits untill we took our own in,i guess it depends on the hospital

after evie was born they left her naked and wrapped her in 3 blankets. when i went for my bath one of the MW had dressed her in a hospital baby gown and wrapped her in a blanket. When we went up to the ward a student mw asked me for a vest and sleepsuit and we dressed her together xxx

My husband and the midwife dressed Neve in the clothes we had brought in with us for her.
