Wrapper
Kit Connection:
This cloth wrapper was used to surround the clean gowns and towels that the nurse or doctor, and the expectant mother would need during the delivery.
A home delivery was treated much like a hospital delivery. The nurse would endeavour to keep things as clean and dignified as possible, regardless of the home's condition.
