The Katie Twigg birthing gown is a hybrid of a maternity nightdress and hospital gown and has been designed to offer comfort and warmth whilst maintaining dignity and privacy at all times.
Ideal for a mum to pack in her hospital bag, the KT birthing gown has been thoughtfully designed by a midwife to accommodate all the needs of childbirth including skin to skin contact between mother and baby, breast feeding , hygiene needs, siting of spinals, epidurals and it also allows IV lines to be changed with minimum disruption to the mother .
Standard hospital nightdresses and gowns as well as mothers own maternity nightdresses do not facilitate easy access for skin-to-skin contact between mother and her newborn baby and can make establishing breast feeding difficult. The KT Birthing gown allows easy access to one or both breasts and at no point is the material obstructing mums view of her newborn. This feature facilitates skin-to-skin contact between mum and baby in the simplest way.
The KT Birthing Gown features:
- One size fits all ladies from size 6 - 26
- Side access poppers which allow easy access to the abdomen whilst the rest of the body remains covered, maintaining warmth and modesty.
- Individual chest panels which can be undone to expose one side of the breast at a time for breastfeeding. The design ensures that no material is pressing on or around the breast. When fastened up, this drop down front acts like a blanket covering the baby whilst having skin to skin contact. It also preserves skin flora helping baby to fight infection.
- Roll up back panel which enables exposure of the back for T.E.N.S machines, massage and medical procedures such as epidurals. The front of the gown will remain in place maintaining warmth and modesty.
- Sleeves which undo from the gown front, allowing easy access for blood pressure cuffs, hygiene needs and intravenous line management.
- Detachable gown front giving total access to the entire abdomen and chest area. This makes changing out of the gown easy and should you wish, a fresh front panel can be attached with minimum disruption.
