Has anyone got a pretty push gift?

My bf had no idea what a push gift was. Now he knows and I will keep reminding him lol.

I informed my bf of the push present tradition and he waited until the last minute.. ended up in the hospital alone with my newborn (pre-covid) while he and his best friend went shopping for it 🤣

No lol the whole concept is weird to me. Our daughter was born in December and I got a necklace with a “K” charm for Valentine’s Day. It was $30 on Etsy and I love it, wear it every day

My hubby didn't even know what a push present was. I guess you could call a Pandora charm I picked out and outright told him I wanted months before my due date a push present 🤣

My hubby surprised me with a tiffany bracelet it has the baby blue heart on it. Love it 😍

Think this is more of an American thing. We don’t do it in the Uk. Might have to encourage it 😆 xx

I got new alloys for my car 😂

I’m in the UK and got a new tumble dryer 😃

My bf had no idea what a push present was😂 so I got myself I gift
I work retail and I’m a little sneaker head so I bought myself some Jordans and baby also got a pair so we can match👀😂

Pssshh hell no. I’m lucky if I get a birthday gift 😂

Lol noooo I wish though!

My husband had NO idea what a push present was when I brought it up casually don’t think I’ll be getting one unless I tell him to buy something specific lol

We are uk and my OH is polish. Told him he needed to get me a push present and when I got home from the hospital he have me a mug that said 'milf' on it and a box of chocolates. Was very grateful he remembered and it felt nice to be appreciated even if he didn't get the jewellery memo 🤣🤣🤣

I got a Tile 😆

Yup! I got a Lexus truck 🥰

Yes I got a ring with her birt stone in it. Bloody deserve it after pregnancy and labor ! X

My husband is pretty useless when it comes to things like this! 😅 So I ended up just outright telling him that push presents are a thing and I would like one 🤣 I was expecting a box of chocolates or something but he got me some apple air pods 😍

I got a new diamond ring

I've been telling my husband about it (semi in jest) since before we got pregnant. Have told him I'd like a ring with our babys birthstone which he seems on board with since I played up the sentimental value 😊

I told my husband about it and he thought it was dumb so I didn’t get anything. However, my sister bought me a necklace with a trex on it because we called the baby “mini rex” in utero.

I was really surprised my husband got me a beautiful gold necklace with our daughters name on it. I didn’t even know that he knew what a push present was.

I’m most likely getting a new car, since ours won’t be big enough ❤️

My husband got me a really cool custom.made photo frame thing. Its a sight with twine hanging down to clip family photos too! Its such an awesome gift.

I didn't even know it was a thing but apparently someone informed my fiance so he's done it for all of my pregnancies. He got me a necklace for our first, a bracelet for our second and for our third and final we invested in one of those adjustable beds.

My husband let me go to a Backstreet Boys concert with a friend a few months after our first was born and not have the cost count against my free spend 😅

Yes, my son

Now that I know what motherhood is how I want my son to be just like his father expensive gifts 🎁 just don’t make sense in our household. Can we afford it yes. But it goes against our minimalist philosophy. Give me an involved father and an extra 20 minutes of sleep 😴 in the morning and that to me is priceless

I just remember growing up watching the real housewives of whatever and then getti these push gifts. Now they are all broke or can’t even use those things because we are in a pandemic. It took me a long time to realize what’s important and how to make your money work for you not the other way around. I just think omg 😳 I could put that money into my marketing or sales budget instead into a depreciable liability. Trust me I would not be saying these things 10 years ago. I grew up never having to think about money 💰. Now that I’m a mom I feel so strongly about role modelling positive spending habits even though he’s still a baby.

I got a new ring, but it’s a marriage/Christmas/push gift and I didn’t even know push gifts were a thing until like 2 weeks ago

My hubs got me a necklace with her birthstone :)

I didn't even know push presents were a thing until right before my son was born. I personally don't see the point. My son was my present and I'd rather have money put towards something we actually need. But to each their own

A new ring with out son’s birthstone

I only found out about a push present when I started watching yummy mummies on Netflix. But agh too lazy to find a gift lol I like getting gifts throughout the year that add up to a big present than one expensive one

I'm so surprised at how many people are vehemently against push presents and think they're ridiculous 😦 I don't think you should go beyond your means and obviously having a baby is lovely and a present in itself, but some nice chocolate or a bit of jewellery can soften the blow a bit when your vagina feels like a train tunnel set on fire 😂❤

I think it’s each to their own, I never had a gender reveal or a baby shower, but know people who have. It’s not my sort of thing. And a push present isn’t really well known in the Uk as far as I know xx

My husband surprised me with a massive box of fancy cheeses - all the ones I couldn’t have while pregnant! Neither of us had ever heard of a push present though. Sounds like an American thing similar to baby showers!

I didnt know till after i had 2 babies. But yes definitely still a thing

Nope. I got nothing. I didn’t have a bridal shower, or baby shower. No family near and no close friends (military wife). My husband got a truck when I was pregnant lol

I got a new car!! which was needed really! Hated having to share

Yes, I think we all deserve a push present regardless how baby comes out! I was treated to a new sparkly ring 🥰

I got a house on 2.5 acres and a car & he's picking out jewelry. (But it was also 10th anniversary, my 30th and our 11th and only successful Pregnancy this far so we wanted to commemorate those events too!)

BUT we're also fairly traditional norse pagans. It was an ancient norse tradition to give "push presents"

King Gorm the Old of Denmark gave Thyra of Wessex the entire country of Denmark + some jewels & gold for giving birth to the boy that would grow up to be Harald Bluetooth.



EDIT: we'd also lost 10 before we had T.Y. in March of this year, I believe there will also be a matching rainbow something like a pendent or mjolnir for T.Y. & I later on. She's our entire world and we're still reeling from the idea that my Pregnancy lasted longer than 10 wks let alone a live baby now 9 mos old!

It’s a gift. It’s a sweet gesture. Not sure what’s negative about it. Lol
And quite frankly, after all my morning sickness, indigestion, etc. plus labor, it’s the least he could do in my opinion 😂

Didn’t get any gift

That would’ve been very nice

I got some fancy weed the other day.🤩

Oh 🧐she really did mean to write push.😆I thought it was a typo and she meant to write posh lmao.
🤩that’s cute, a push present . It’s my first time hearing about that.

When my water broke , my husband wanted to buy me a diamond ring . But all the material things stopped being important for me at that moment. The only thing I could see was him and the baby. Everything else seemed frivolous. That’s why you gotta buy the ring before the water breaks , gentlemen! 😂

I got a cordless pump I wanted the willow and I hated it but used it a lot though and I think push presents are a big deal on Instagram # and all #Pushpresent

I got a gift... my son🥲❤

I didn’t get any push gifts.. I did upgrade my phone when I had my second.. I guess that’s a push gift.. lol I think push gifts are a nice gesture when you receive it without asking for anything.. the baby is a gift in itself!
