For me, the baby was my push present. But that's not what the vote is about....

Grace, does this diamond tennis bracelet make my wrist look fat?

  • He got me a Mother's Day gift a month before she was born, so I didn't expect anything else. It was an iPhone and looking back that was the greatest thing he could've bought for me. I don't know what I would've done without it during those early months nursing around the clock.

  • He got me some flowers a day after she was born, and for mother's day gave me a emerald pandora charm.

  • I expected one for each kid and got something sweet each time.

    melOHdy MH was spoon fed what to do :) I gave him a list to choose from, as I do with any gift-giving occasion, and he picked well each time!

  • I voted that I didn't expect or get one, but my husband did present me with my very own beer mug with the liquid inside that you can freeze for my first pp beer. I loved it!

    I told him I thought they were ridiculous before hand since some of our friends were talking about it in front of them. I told him I would kill him if he spent our money on one. The damn romantic bought me a gorgeous ruby and diamond necklace with his childhood saving account because I was in the hospital on valentines day :)

    This time around he bought me JayZ/JT tickets but we both really wanted to go so it was more of a good excuse to get them. I really still think they are lame and with all the expenses of a new baby I'm too practical to not think of saving for them.

    ETA BUT I have to add "gifts" is not my love language or his so I think I would understand if this was the way you express your appreciation as a couple.

  • I didn't expect one or get one. Although, some flowers may have been nice.

  • Didn't want one and didn't get one. DH did plenty when I was on SBR for 4 months and he waited on me hand and foot. :)

  • I wasn't even really aware this was an actual thing until very close to DDs birth. I didn't expect and didn't get one.

  • I got a baby as my present!

  • I didn't want anything expensive, but I definitely expected a card telling me what a freaking rockstar I was for growing his kid and then busting her out! I also got a sweet little necklace from etsy with Anna's initial on it that was around $20 and it was perfect. I love fancy jewelry, but if DH had dropped hundreds of dollars on something before I was about to stop working for 6 weeks, I would have stressed!

    I was not expecting a gift but he got a vasectomy for my pushing present. :-)

  • I did not expect one, nor did I really want one.  I find the concept odd, and it is not something that is really a thing in our family.  My H, however, did get my a Pandora bead for my bracelet and gave it to me in the hospital right after B was born.  It was really sweet. 

    Then the doctor asked my H if that was my push present, and my H said "What the hell is a push present??" LOL
