Push Gift

For those of you not familiar with the concept, its a gift your husband gives you after the birth of your child. I am torn on this idea. First, I think its nice to get something since after all, you've done so much work and still have a lot in front of you. On the other hand, we are trying to save for a place so I'd rather my husband not spend a lot of money on me. I will be giving birth around the time of Mother's Day so I know he will get me a little something.

What's your opinion? Do you think its a must? And if so, what type of gift do you expect?

I have the maternity photography session tonight. I'm excited and nervous since I'll be nude in front of a stranger. He's a professional though so I'm sure he'll put me at ease. I'll post a picture up here at some point (cut out to just show the belly, so don't worry, I'm not showing you my boobs!).

Seven weeks to go!

My personal opinion is that it isn't necessary. Before I had my son, I secretly hoped that my hubby would buy me something after the baby was born. But, once I had the baby I didn't even think twice about it. All I thought about once the baby was born was I wanted help (which my husband and I did share the responsibility of taking care of my son). BUT... Make sure your husband is VERY aware to get you something for your first Mother's Day. My son was four weeks old when I had my first Mother's Day and my husband didn't get me anything. Not even a card. I still haven't forgiven him for that. :) Having a new baby is stressful and exhausting and I needed a little something to show that my husband appreciated me. :)
