What is a push present?

Push present: It is a phrase we hear more often regarding the birth. The word itself may sound a bit funny but honestly, the idea of giving a brand new mother a nice gift is actually not that weird at all. 

Therefore, a push present is a gift that is given to a woman who just had a baby. Usually the partner gives it as a thank you to the brand new mother, but these days also family and friends surprise the mom with a nice present more often. After carrying a baby for 9 months and giving birth, we can all use an extra token of appreciation. Secondly, gold is a beautiful memento for later. 

It is quite common for a brand new mom to receive gold as a push present. However it doesn’t always have to be gold. A push present is often a piece of jewelry, but also a nice (diaper) bag or a wellness day, are popular gifts for the brand new mother.
