deeply silly

I present to you "Dear Johnnies," (http://www.dearjohnnies.com/index.php) fashionable versions of hospital gowns designed for delivering mothers. Because "having a baby is an extraordinary experience, and moms deserve to wear something better than an ordinary hospital gown." They run $65.
Now, I've delivered two babies. The first time I was buck naked for at least the last 3 hours of the process. The second time I barely made it into the hospital gown. In neither case did I give a rat's ass about the thread count of the fabrics involved, or the cuteness of the print. Dear Johnnies are available color-coordinated so you can match the gender of your baby. They are 100% cotton, so I suppose if you wanted to you could launder them thoroughly to get out the sweat, blood, and other possible bodily fluids out of them afterwards. Me, I'm happy to have the hospital do that job, and then simply put on my own bathrobe from home for the period after the baby is born.
