I am the Subject model in the pictures.

Current Dress size - Large
Normal size - Medium
Now I am pregnant in the 2nd trimester. I have been preparing to get baby and maternal things I need.
Size- the Frida gown I noticed at first try is big although one size fit all. The neck line sits okay for what the hospital needs to do for your care. No different from the hospital gown neckline.
The stretch of the fabric is very roomy. It is heavier than the hospital gown so gravity may pull it off the shoulders alot on a slim or petite person. For me it does not ...due to my weight gain in my shoulder and arms.
Comfort - so soft! no scratchy tags and jersey like material. Made of 95% Viscose and 5% spandex.
Stretchy - plenty of room to grow, no restrictions on movement or changing position in bed especially during contractions.
Great pockets - for a couple of Jolly ranchers to suck on or hair tie to pull hair back immediately during labor.
Gown Access - for epiderual, the back unsnaps down from neck to 11 inches from the split of the hem. For nursing, the left and right side of the breast of the gown can be unsnapped from collarbone to waist depending how short, average or long your torso is.
*Remember, when you need to change gowns the nurse takes the IV bag off the hook stand and pass it thru the sleeve opening.. so don’t worry about the need to cut your gown!!😉
The color - it is a charcoal grey. I love that it is dark although not cute. The only cuteness I will be worried about is seeing my baby for the first time!! but they should have a black option for the ladies since it is a popular color that can hide stains or leak from delivery or nursing.
Overall, It is nothing fancy! Just a simple functional gown for meeting my needs during Or after delivery. Definitely checking off my list to go in my hospital bag. I already purchased a different gown in a beautiful color for pictures with babies.
Wishing the best for all of you mamas during this amazing time❤️
