WHO GIVES A SHIT: Push Presents?

 

BREEDERS, this may be the only time I utter these words so listen carefully: Your valuable input is needed.

For the first time this week, I heard about "push presents." Apparently, I'm like the only person who's never heard of this, but if you're shamefully out of the loop, too, it's a(n often huge) gift a hubby gives his wife after popping out their offspring (or, I guess if you live on the UES, post scheduled C-section). I think the deal is it's supposed to "commemorate the occasion" and like, reward the mother for her "work" during and after the pregnancy. Case in point: the 10-carat diamond ring bestowed upon Rachel Zoe this week.

So, BREEDERS, did you get a push present? Did you ask for one? Expect one? Is this so un-Park Slope? And FUTURE BREEDERS, your thoughts? Had anyone else never heard of this, either?

I remain perplexed. Future husband, wherever you are, just change the effing kid's diaper and skip the diamond, kk?
