I required no gift for being cut open to retrieve our daughters. I was sooo happy I didn’t have to push! What I did expect, and voiced the expectation, was a ring with our daughters’ birthstones. I ended up getting individual gemstone rings which will be passed to them when they are 21. I now have earrings to match the 1st daughter’s ring, but with the 2nd one being a Ruby stone, the earrings will have to wait until after we build our new home.

I agree, child birth shouldn’t be “paid for”. I more appreciated Hubster taking the time off of work once we got home from the C-sections. What good would a jeweled piece have done me if he went back to work immediately?
