Delivery Robes
A delivery robe is one of the most practical and thoughtful items to pack in your hospital bag — comfortable enough to wear during labor, stylish enough to feel like yourself in those first newborn photos, and functional enough to support skin-to-skin contact and nursing in the hours and days after birth. At Glamix, our delivery robe collection includes lightweight open-front styles in soft, breathable fabrics, kimono-inspired designs that wrap loosely over hospital gowns, and longer robes that provide warmth and coverage during your hospital stay and early postpartum recovery at home.
All delivery robes are designed with easy front access for skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding, and can be worn over a nursing bra and shorts or leggings for a comfortable, practical postpartum outfit. Available in a range of sizes and styles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I look for in a delivery robe?
The most important features in a delivery robe are an open-front design that allows easy access for monitoring during labor and skin-to-skin contact after birth, soft and breathable fabric that is comfortable against sensitive postpartum skin, adequate length for coverage and warmth during a hospital stay, easy laundering since robes frequently need washing in the postpartum period, and a style that looks presentable in the newborn photos taken in the first hours after birth.
When should I start wearing my delivery robe?
Most people start wearing their delivery robe when they arrive at the hospital or birth center — either over their hospital gown during labor for extra warmth and coverage, or immediately after birth for skin-to-skin contact and nursing in the first hours. A delivery robe is also invaluable in the days after birth when you are moving between your hospital room and the corridor, receiving visitors, or simply wanting to feel more comfortable and put-together than a standard hospital gown allows.
Can I wear a delivery robe for home postpartum recovery?
Absolutely. Delivery robes are just as practical at home as in the hospital, particularly in the early postpartum weeks when comfort is the top priority. The open-front design allows easy breastfeeding access throughout the day, and the loose fit accommodates postpartum belly changes without restriction. Many mamas wear their delivery robe as their primary home clothing in the first week or two after birth because of the practical nursing access and comfortable, relaxed fit.
What is the best fabric for a delivery robe?
Soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, bamboo, and rayon blends are the best choices for delivery robes because they are gentle against sensitive postpartum skin, breathable during the physical exertion of labor and the hormonal temperature fluctuations of the early postpartum period, and easy to launder. Avoid synthetic fabrics that trap heat and moisture, which can be uncomfortable during and after birth. Lightweight woven fabrics are ideal for warmer months, while slightly heavier knit options provide more warmth for winter hospital stays.
Do delivery robes come in plus sizes?
Yes, plus size delivery robes are available in our collection. Our plus size styles feature the same open-front design and soft fabrics as standard sizes with wider and longer cuts that provide comfortable coverage for a fuller figure during and after birth. The open-front construction means plus size delivery robes accommodate a wide range of body shapes and postpartum belly sizes without needing to fit precisely.
