These are the only nighties my husband could put on our baby...



I met the Westcoast Baby founder at Royal Columbian Hospital the week I delivered Addie. The little trip down to the lobby after a c-section felt like a 10 mile hike -but it was worth it to hear the story behind this nightie. The kimono style is popular in Asia (I seem to think she said Japan but then i was on some heavy narcotics...!) and she brought the idea back to Vancouver and designed this super stretchy kimono style nighty, with matching soft cocoony blanket, and little hat. So I stocked up!

Logistically it's very smart and husband-help friendlly - you set out the nightie all opened up, put the baby on it, do one arm two arms into the holes, tie her up and you're done! If you're really smart, you put the blanket underneath and then you can wrap them up before you pick up! It was great when we were so panic stricken about supporting her neck - anything that required rolling her over to do it up the back was too much to handle in those first weeks!

So long story short, love love love the Westcoast Baby kimono nighties! And don't they look sweet all hung up? The new grass green color is so sweet for spring and summer!!!
