Jammy Time

PJs to Your Door Pajama Delivery Service

You just had a baby. You’re happy and hormonal and not a little terrified.

Add to the mix hordes of friends who’ve crowded into the room to see you. Come picture time, that hospital johnny won’t cut it.

Take pity on a poor postpartum mom and instead of flowers (wilted in a week) or balloons (deflated in a day), send pajamas from PJs to Your Door. The Newbury-based company delivers post-pregnant jammies, traditional gowns, and sexy nursing dresses within 24 hours to any house or hospital bed.

It’s just the thing a new mom needs.

That and some sleep.

Available by phone order (877-462-0133). To see styles, go to pjstoyourdoor.com.
