What is your dream "push present"?
I know some think push presents are ridiculous BUT for those of you that wouldn't mind a gift from your DH to commemorate a very special day - what would you like? Even if you're dreaming....
I would like these. Mostly because I know I could use them for a long time and they would have a special meaning. And they are gorgeous.
Your turn!

This.
A healthy baby and some sushi. That's what I got last time and that's what I want this time.
You remind me of my friend who made her husband promise to run and get her this blue cheese burger of some kind right after giving birth because she stayed away from those kinds of cheeses for 9 months. When I visited her, she was chowing down on it. LOL. Hey whatever makes you happy right?
Ooh good one. a DSLR? Or a point and shoot? I need a new one too. Mine is so slow and old.
Very practical! Is that a difficult procedure?
Exactly. And a picture of this baby on my chest right after he is born. Last time we couldn't find the camera
Brunch brought to me in bed consisting of 2 medium poached eggs, crispy bacon, sweet potato hash browns and fresh strawberries. Frank's Red Hot Sauce on the side. Plus if it's before noon a HUGE Americano.
Last time my first post-birth bite was vanilla yogourt out of the container (home birth). We ordered in burgers a few hours later.
Mmmm, in and out is my favorite! I dip my fries in my chocolate shake.
Perfect
That is an excellent gift. Health is so important!
That is very sweet. And of course we all just want a healthy baby but I like the tradition of having gifts on special days. They tell a story and sometimes can be passed down.
I think rings make great gifts from men. I don't like mixing and matching golds either.
I love the idea of "push presents" but I HATE the term. It should just be a small token of your SO's appreciation for you going through child birth...
That said I think spa gifts are good, a beautiful new photo frame for baby's photo, a hoagie (sub/deli sandwich for those not eating deli meat), dinner out shorty after baby, get the house/bathrooms professionally cleaned, or a new necklace with baby's birth stone.
I personally want a healthy baby and maybe a nice dinner with DH
What is better than breakfast in bed? Sounds amazing. I hope your husband can cook!
Sounds like a brat to me!
I first heard the term on FB when my friend posted about her push present - earrings. I thought it was a gross term. But I don't know what else to call it!
This, and throw in a good, craft beer.
Not at all. I enjoy giving gifts as well. Have you read the book The 5 Love Languages?
Otherwise, I'm not pushing and he can just be SOL.
What's wrong with you, OP? You couldn't think of anything else to get lots of people to click on your referral code?
To clarify, I had never heard of push presents before thebump, and don't really want one. But if we're gonna dream
I'm dying to update my DSLR. I have an old Rebel XT that's slowly dying. I'd love to upgrade to a Canon 60D
Not gonna happen, and it's totally extravagant, but it's a DREAM

Maybe we should come up with a poll to brainstorm a better term? I have no problem w/sentimental gifts for special occasions (truth be told, I've suggested an engraved silver locket that I could put the kids pic in wouldn't be a bad idea
) The term PP is just so incredibly gauche.
Well besides the obvious healthy baby-as I assume this thread is about gifts, I would like some diamond studs or aquamarine jewelry. Maybe a guard for my wedding band with aquamarine stones or something like that.
Why can't you have coffee?
Exactly! This is just for fun. You could take lots of amazing pictures of your baby with that Canon 60D!
Lockets are very romantic.
I am up for a new term! But I cannot think of one. Hmmm.
What is aquamarine jewelry? I am going to have to google that because it sounds intriguing.
Edit: Wow, gorgeous.
This... I'm reading this thread thinking I must be the only one still eating sushi and having an occasional glass of wine
