Funny to hear others’ views on this. I got my wife a mink coat on the birth of our child. I have never heard it called a “push present” or anything else. It is true that the baby is blessing enough, but the baby is also an equal blessing to me — and I had to endure much less for this blessing than did my wife. My wife was so magnificent doing what she could for the baby throughout the pregnancy and was such a trooper during a painful delivery that I felt like saying thank you. She loves our baby and loves (less and differently, obviously) her “push present”. I was just glad that our finances allowed me to thank her for all that she did.
