Fetal Monitor access

Note to women preparing for birth:

The Unisex hospital gown has no opening for the fetal monitor so they will be pulling up your gown an awful lot :(  The pretty Pushers labor gown, however, provides easy access for the fetal monitor so you can keep your skirt on during labor :)  Get comfortable.  Get mobile.  It's your choice!

One OBGYN says...

Who knows better than an OBGYN what birthing women need?  Dr. Lisa McLeod at New York Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital had a patient walk in with her Pretty Pusher and immediately praised it.

Birthplan

Prepare for the unexpected.  Know your rights, and know your hospital's protocol.  Educate yourself about all the ways a labor may unfold.  Then you may just get the birth you want!

What do doulas say?

Doulas have seen many birth scenarios.  The fast, the furious, the slow, the painful, the home, the hospital...all the while working within the setting chosen by the mother and likely with new doctors, nurses, and family members each time.  For a doula to say that she recommends Pretty Pushers labor gowns to her patients means a lot to us...because that means that she sees a positive experience and outcome when a mother wears it.
