I would like a huge diamond pendant for my necklace with baby's birthstone in the middle...from my husband. He's sick of buying me diamonds but I don't care one bit.
I believe it originated from other culters (not a 100% sure) but I think India (once again unsure its been a while since I read about it) they treat the mother to a week long spa treatment. All the woman get involved and she doesn't have to cook or clean. She gets her feet washed and hair done daily and the husband gives her a gift for bringing a child into the world. And how it came to america is because of all the different culters mixing so now we have the push gift. Please forgive me if my info isn't entirely correct. But that's the gist of it
@Rosiepie I dont know honestly, thats the first place I heard of it xD that lady was going and picking it herself! But then again, it would make sense if your bd gave it to you.
Lol I told my hubby about it and he just rolled his eyes at me. But, he started looking at those necklaces with the babys birth stone in it so I'm excited! I might not get it right away due to money but when I do it will be awesome
Lol I made sure my bf knew all about it..he bought me a necklace with diamonds and a heart and at the top its a mother and baby. He was so excited that he gave it to me early
@Rosiepie I JUST heard about push presents myself! I heard one of the girls in my clinicals talking about it.. Apparently it's a gift that the father gives the mother after she gives birth for doing all that work during labor. Heres the thing, the ENTIRE 9 gd months should be considered labor soooo while I love the idea of a push present I'm gonna go ahead and vote for presents during pregnancy instead of push presents because the baby is a pretty kick butt present and I feel like I'm workin pretty hard right now!
@littlefae that sounds awesome!! I could stand for a weeks worth of facials and massages!! And indian food is soooo tastey. Fortunately my husband is from a culture where the other women come when a baby is born and they help out too. And my neighbors (all foreign women) have offered to help! Maybe I could coax facials out of them too.
Sounds like an excuse to get a gift to me. A pretty good excuse! I'm dropping hints to my hubby that I want a new videogame for giving birth to our baby even tho I consider the baby to be the ultimate gift!
My hubby gave me a ring with diamonds on it after we had out 1st, nothing big but I loved it when I first saw it and he remembered . It was also like a promise ring too. I'm expecting another with this one...LOL... he just laughs at me.
