Has anybody tried them? There not the most attractive things, but I don't really think any maternity/nursing pjs are all that cute, and they're reasonably priced. I'm not into low-cut stuff, so they seem like they'd be pretty good, and the gowns aren't too long. I'm just wondering if anybody has any experience with them. Thanks!

Here's the link, if you're wondering what I'm talking about:

I've not tried ones from JCPenny but I have one of that style. I've not been impressed. The openings never seemed to work right. I couldn't get them where I wanted them for breastfeeding. And when I wasn't feeding, I felt like they were gaping open and showing into my bra. I"ve mostly used them while in bed though... not as a throw over for getting up and around without taking the time to get dressed.

I preferred flannel pj bottoms (the kind with a drawstring to accomdate different waist sizes as shrunk) and a t-shirt that I could pull up. I liked long sleeves too because I like to sleep with the covers pulled way up and when I'm c-sleeping with a newborn, I make the bed so that the covers can't be pulled that high. So the t-shirt acts to keep me more comfy as I sleep. I've even slept in turtle necks to help me sleep better... I just pull them up when baby want to nurse and they may or may not fall back down after.

I've got their "gown and layette set". I ended up getting frustrated with the gown part, and left it in a drawer. The openings just didn't open far enough for my taste (1st time mom - gotta have the whole breast out for it to work, you know! :lol ) The layette part - the baby gown - was one of my favorite items for DD, though.

I bought one other of their nursing gowns - maybe the top and boxer set? It was just plain ridiculous, the nursing slits were over my hipbones!

The good thing was that their return policy was very easy. Oh, and I still like wearing their nursing sleep bra - very comfy!
