Baby Be Mine Maternity Labor Delivery Nursing Robe Hospital Bag Must Have

I'll start by saying that I really do LOVE this robe but there are some notable annoyances so I had to ding them some stars. I love that they have such fun/cute patterns and it's a comfy robe. I'm just really bothered by the difference in sizes in that they are SUCH DIFFERENT ITEMS. I ordered the Brie color in both a S/M (which I expected to fit) and the L/XL (to see if I liked the length more since I'm on the taller side, 5' 10"). I'll be keeping the S/M because it fits the best, but I was surprised by how different the two robes were:1. COLOR: the S/M looks faded compared to the L/XL which is much more vibrant.2. FABRIC: the S/M isn't so stretchy and not quite as soft, the L/XL was extra soft and stretchy.3. POCKETS: the S/M has NO POCKETS, the L/XL HAS POCKETS (WHY??? This one bothers me the most).4. SLEEVES: The S/M has long straight sleeves, the L/XL has elbow-length flared sleeves.I much prefer pockets and elbow sleeves but like I said, the fit of the S/M is better so I'll be keeping that one, especially since I really want to be able to use it well past pregnancy. It's just a bummer that the two robes are so SO different. I contacted Baby Be Mine through Amazon about this (they had e-mailed me to see if I was satisfied with my purchase) and the expected response time was 2 days. 8 days later I've heard nothing so I figured a review was fair-game.

I'm 5'4" and pre baby weight I am around 145lbs. I'm almost 9 months pregnant and got this robe for my hospital stay. I ordered the L/XL and it fits my belly perfect. There's no belly popping out at all. This is my second child, and we all know that your belly doesn't just disappear after you have the baby, so I'm looking forward to feeling a little pretty after having him. The colors are exactly shown as in the picture and the belt is attached on the sides, which is awesome. It did have a strong chemical smell (as read in other reviews) so definitely wash it before you wear it. I washed mine with the Free and Clear detergent I had bought to wash all the babies new clothes and the smell came right out. Definitely get this, you won't be disappointed!

This robe was perfect for me. I am 6'0", and weighed 168lbs pre-baby and 192 at 40 weeks. I got the L/XL and it fit well. The sleeves were a tiny bit short, but at my height that's expected. It's a cottony material so it not a "winter in MN" robe but it was perfect for me in Tennessee from June until I delivered in September. I wore it in the hospital after giving birth and it was comfortable, forgiving, and still looked good in pictures while visitors filed through!

Lovee!! Definitely worth the buy! Got so many compliments at the hospital and it made my hospital photos so much better. It honestly made me feel confident being in labor! Washed in Dreft baby soap and smelled so good while in labor haha

I really like the fabric, color and print. I do worry about it fading, but that remains to be seen. As mentioned in previous reviews, this robe is not made for big bellies. The picture of the model wearing the robe has no baby belly at all, so this should give a hint. I am 5'5" and I was 122 lbs pre-pregnancy, size 4/6. I've since gained 40 lbs at 39 weeks, and people tell me all the time I'm "all belly." I will have to wear a gown or shorts/pants underneath to avoid flashing, no doubt. I bought it for pictures in the hospital bed, so the flashing won't be an issue there. Additionally, I plan to wear it long after my baby belly is gone, so I don't regret the purchase, so far. We'll have to see how it holds up after multiple washings.

This is very pretty. I'm 5'3" 175lbs and I ordered the L/XL. I ordered it large because I wanted to be sure that it covered everything while I was in the hospital. It goes about 3" below my knee.

The robe itself is fine. Well-designed and good combo with the birthing gown. I like that it's more knee-length for optimal comfort if walking halls in labor or entertaining visitors after birth--when I don't want to be wondering if something is showing by accident. I think it would be good if a smaller size option were offered. The small/med. size is borderline too huge even though I'm less than a month from my due date (& I'm petite but not tiny): right now 5' 3" & 155 lbs. full-term. I have several complaints: 1) The "Mae" fabric is NOT what is pictured. It is a very large-scale splattered abstract flower-print, not the delicate print pictured. The blue is much muddier and more grey. Definitely returning for a different color. 2) The coordinating line of birthing gowns often are not in stock in a fabric that matches the robes. The point is a matching "set," but it's hit or miss what is available.

Love this robe! Im currently 37 weeks and I decided to order according to what others were saying on reviews...I went a size up and ordered the L/XL and I'm glad I did. While it fits perfectly now pregnant I know it will cover all of me after birth and in the hospital. Fabric is super soft and light weight but not see through. Happy I went ahead to tried this out. Washing it now so that will be the TEST for how the fabric holds up! :)
