Push presents are stupid, and women who expect “push presents” from their SO’s are even more stupid. You’re giving life…

Who hurt you? Calling people stupid was a bit harsh. Maybe you think the idea is stupid but others may not. Calling them names doesn’t make your opinion any more right.

I didn’t get a push present or expect one but each to their own. Pregnancy and labour are tough, if a present makes someone feel better then so be it.

My friend got an hermes bag as a push present. She had no clue that it was an expensive bag so she ran around using it as a diaper bag and spilled milk on it a couple times. I never knew of push presents until then. We found out her bag was over 20K

I wasnt expecting any especially being on bedrest and everything on my SO’s shoulders.

But my mom did suprise me with an SUV. she sent a picture of a toyota rav4, &’ asked if i thought it was nice and i told her yes and she said good because she was dropping it off before her trip.

we may not see eye to eye but i know she just wants the best for me 💗

I’ve never heard of a push present before but I feel like it’s probably something really stupid and unnecessary

I never even heard of a push present then even though you get presents from having babies besides at your baby shower

@kalixta, Lmao neither do I, but it does sound like it did! 😂😂

I didn’t know this was a thing but it totally sounds like something that came from Teen Mom.....😂😂 I don’t watch that show, btw..🤷🏻‍♀️

@sagwaenglish, Lmao those PP cravings are worse than pregnancy cravings sometimes 😂

@mlmspm, Yes, exactly! It’s very nice, and sweet and the SO’s part, but to be expected or demanded by the gf or wife is another story.

I never even heard of a push present until my brother in law bought one for his wife. Then, my husband got me one b/c he felt he should after seeing his brother do it. I thought it was nice but, I encouraged him to return it. I’d rather use that money on something our kids need. I think it’s nice if someone’s significant other wants to do this and can afford to however, I definitely agree that it should not be expected or demanded.

@sagwaenglish, Lmao yuuummmm!!!!😍🤗😂♥️

@ljsmommy22, omg!! I’m so sorry!!! 😣 you definitely deserved one 😮 but it is true, the baby should be the only “push gift” there is. 🙃

@britt., prenuptial agreements are okay. I’m talking about ungrateful gf’s and wives who care about gifts instead of their children. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@lex_6, haha yeah thinks got pretty funny in another post

@lex_6, haha naah it was about a $900 diaper bag that a girl liked but was pretty ugly

@lex_6, idk if you are the girl that made 2 posts about an ugly ass diaper bag and then changed her name 3 times and blocked half of us then yes lol

Yes my body went into shock while pushing when my son was stuck in the canal for two hours. I know. I always hear "I'd better get a good push gift" Like um isn't your child the gift😂🤣

I EXPECTED a push present... He expects me to change the majority of the diapers. Plus... A push present is in our prenuptial agreement. 💁🏻 even if we divorced, he'd still owe me.👍🏻

@miaheka yeah it is. I don't get upset or offended by it. I see it as an opportunity to educate somebody

@ljsmommy22, almost dying?!?! 😳 Are you okay?! It’s great to receive one, it’s the women who expect one that’s a different story. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@coffeeislife, that’s just ignorant. Birth is birth whether it’s by c-section or vagina. Same freakin’ thing. Ugh. That just pisses me off.

I got a push present they got all my cravings after I gave birth because everybody felt bad about us almost dying lol I wasn't expecting one tho

@josefa yeah, people can be pretty nasty but luckily for me I don't let it get to me. They're totally against it which means they've never been through it so am I opinion they don't have an opinion. Recovery was the worst!!! The C-section itself was quick and I didn't feel a thing but after that 3 months of recovery was pretty bad

@coffeeislife, whaat that is insane. I would rather have a vaginal birth so i think c sections mamas are amazing ..its a lot harder to be cut ! also recovery is awful

@miaheka it's okay, people just like to say that we never actually gave birth or they like to say that we did something wrong that caused us to have to have a C-section or that we chose to have a C-section over natural birth.

@coffeeislife, that’s awful.

I’m sorry. :/

@the.real.og, hahaha it really must be a new thing...🤔😂

@miaheka, yes !!!

@miaheka that's good to hear. Most people look down on us.

@aengs2, lol that’s awesome! What I really meant was when someone receives a gift unexpectedly it’s sweet and a wonderful gesture by the SO. However, expecting a gift for giving life is just selfish. 😓

My amazing husband bought me earrings and I wasn't going to say no. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@ss3mom, agreed. Our babies are the greatest gifts!💛

@dee2115, don’t we all...🤷🏻‍♀️🙃

@coffeeislife, all C-section mamas deserve a medal 🏅 for having their bodies cut open. I say this not being one of those women. I respect c-section moms.

@coffeeislife, 😂😂😂😂

@phoebesmommy, lol I agree. And of course there’s nothing wrong with receiving one. It’s sweet of the SO to do so, but to expect one is just selfish.

@angelfoodcake, Lmao right?! 😂

@alishap1212, YUM!!! Anything sweet is an acceptable gift!!!!😍😍😍😍

@josefa, FOR REAL 😂😂😂😂

I don’t really care either way. It doesn’t bother me if someone got one. I didn’t with either of my kids and I didn’t expect it. The baby was the real gift

I would’ve loved a push present. But I just love presents 🎁

I've never heard of this either. Is there such a thing as a cut present? I had a C-section. I'm JK I would never expect anything like that.

BUT there’s nothing wrong with receiving a gift. There is something wrong about demanding one.

I didn’t read through comments but the culture in the US is instant gratification- you want- you go get. And if you do anything remotely challenging- you are entitled to all the treasures of the world your little heart desires... and if he loves you, then he would shower you with all you want AND meet all your emotional needs.🙄🙄 Just go watch some commercials...

Oh and don’t forget— you’re a bad parent if you don’t throw a massive themed bday party for your 1 yr old with a professionally decorated cake and hire a photographer.. better actually start with a gender reveal and or pregnancy announcement.

New age craziness I tell ya

@knockout, this gift makes sense without coffee idk if I’d be a good mom lmao 😂

@knockout, lmao she just really got in my nerves hahah

@josefa, 🤣🤣🤣 giiiiiiiiiiiirl stooooop 🤣

@miaheka, haha ! 3 weeks after she was born my husband came home with dessert as just a simple present you are doing so good as I’m working and it was the sweetest thing considering I couldn’t have sweets during my pregnancy bc of gd ! It was very sweet

all i know is i knew nothing about push presents but i wouldnt ask for a $900 diaper bag as a "push present" lmaooooooo

I got a Keurig when I delivered my son... but it was also my birthday 😂🤣

Your so right . I never even heard of push gift till after I had my daughter already. 😂🤷‍♀️ @miaheka

@annarizzo123, Lmao 😂

@miaheka, like damn I am owed a lot of presents then 😂😂😂

@annarizzo123, you’re not stupid!

@annarizzo123, 😂😂😂😂 sounds like it, though. 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃

@alishap1212, well, except that I have a boy.😂

@alishap1212, SAME! 💛

@blakeslatinmama, thank you!!!!

Lmao 😂 I legit thought this was about pooping I feel stupid now 🤦🏻‍♀️

I didn’t expect a push present - I got the best present ever - my daughter

@blakeslatinmama, that’s what I mean. Getting one is sweet, but expecting one is completely idiotic. My baby boy was also my push present.💙

@bigmama18, It is sweet to get one, but to expect one is a different story. Unless it’s food... Food is always an exception. 😂😂

I expect to get whatever meal I desire after pushing a big ass baby out of my vag. The only push present I want! I think it’s sweet to get one but nobody should except it.

@mulatto_mama, 🤷🏻‍♀️😊

@miaheka 🤔 good point

@mulatto_mama, maybe he didn’t, and just thought you deserved a present anyway for giving him his daughter. 🤷🏻‍♀️💛

@miaheka he does. I didnt know what a push present was and now I'm curious as to how he knew lol

@mulatto_mama, that was sweet of him! He clearly loves and cares about you.💛

@__m, 😂😂😂😂

I had never heard of it until I was being induced and someone asked my hubby what he got me for a push present. (Apparently he already had my necklace in the mail for me but it was supposed to be a surprise.) I'm like "tf is a push present"? 😂

@izzyaspie, Lmao, GIRL...😂😂😂

@mamaofzuri, 😂😂😂😂 that’s why I don’t bother with driving. 🤣

@mommyof1boyy, there’s nothing wrong with that!!!🤗🤗🤗

My push present was food from Cook Out 😍😍

@mamaofzuri, that’s so dangerous 😳😅

@mommytok, yeah, I figured so after reading it, but that’s not the case at all.

Who hurt you? Calling people stupid was a bit harsh. Maybe you think the idea is stupid but others may not. Calling them names doesn’t make your opinion any more right.

@miaheka, oh okay I think your post came across more as like men shouldn’t even think to do something like that nice for their women. I agree that expecting a big gift is very selfish though!

@mamaofzuri, oh my goodness. 😅 Doesn’t the person you drive with for your test make you go on the highway?

@miaheka Agreed! Expecting one is wrong in my opinion.

@mommytok, That’s not what I meant. If someone’s man wants to spoil them out of the kindness of their hearts, and feels they deserve to be spoiled then it’s not wrong at all. It is wrong however to expect it and be more excited for the present than their actual baby.

@emily526, You didn’t expect it, and he unfortunately missed her birth, that’s a complete exception. I’m sorry about that. Getting one from your SO isn’t stupid. Expecting one is what I really feel is stupid. If you’re SO gets you one out of the kindness of his hear and feels you deserve it, then there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Expecting one is silly but if someone’s man wants to spoil them what’s the issue?

My husband sent me a push present because he missed our daughter's birth. It was a really nice surprise, I didn't even know he was aware of what a push present was. I didn't expect anything or ask for anything and I don't think any woman should. But I don't think getting one from your SO is stupid at all.

@mamaofzuri, oh boy 😅 aren’t you supposed to practice on the main road and freeway, too? 😮😅

@jaygirls, amen sista! I have my c-section scar as my gift.

@jaygirls, Lmao you deserve a damn award 🥇

Does a csection scar count as a push present? I aint push but I got the baby out some how. 💁

@mamaofzuri, lol leasing a car for a year would be a good idea. You just gotta pass your test first! 😝

@isabellesmomma212, apparently it is?! I had no idea either till I saw a ton of posts and finally googled what the hell it meant. It’s stupid. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@they-see-me-trollin, it’s just ridiculous when they’re more excited about the gift than their own baby. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I didn't even know this was a thing?!? 😂

@masseymomma16, mine was my baby boy too! ☺️

@masseymomma16, Thank you!!! It is ridiculous! Especially when they’re more excited about the “push gift” than their own baby. Why even get pregnant in the first place?! 🤦🏻‍♀️

@mamaofzuri, lmao 😂 pass your test, and then dream about your own car. 😂 maybe hold off on it till you guys decide if you’re moving back home or not though...😬🤔😅

My push present was my baby girl! But agree that those that demand a gift are just ridiculous

@mommytotheo, you don’t seem like the kind of person who would either. Getting one unexpected isn’t bad at all. Especially if it was money you used to spend on your precious Theo. 😊

@mamaofzuri, Lmao I would still prefer food over a car 🤷🏻‍♀️ mainly because I don’t drive. 😂 I mean, a bigger car for your two kiddos if your is small could be an exception..🤔

@squishymommy1, lol that’s nice, I’m sure you didn’t expect that. 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️

@__m, you’re one of the good women in this world. 💛 I feel the same way about my boy!☺️

@miaheka I would never expect anyone to get me I was in complete shock. Im pretty sure I ended up spending it all on theo to
