Gifts for Moms - Choosing a Push Present / Push Gift

There is a new trend that some thought might not "stick around". Some may have dismissed it as a private exchange for the rich and famous. Make no mistake, it is anything but those things. This is a new way that a spouse or significant other can acknowledge Moms and Moms-to-be. Women over the world are shown appreciation for the months of sacrifice - with a gift!


better known as:

The Push Present or The Push Gift

By Definition
In a nutshell: push present or push gift is given to the mother marking the birth of their child. This practice of gift giving does not have any defined rules. Some fathers give the present before childbirth. Some surprise the new Mom when she arrives home from the hospital. We have been told that some brave fathers bring the gift to the delivery room (imagine that). Many women direct their significant others and even choose their presents ahead of time. There are many others that want to have a gift chosen "from the heart". As you can see, there are no real clear definitions, instructions or rules. 

Suggestion 
For Dad to choose a gift during this transitional time, it can often get confusing. He may be thinking: Did I spend enough? Will she like it? Does it show he how much I appreciate her? The list goes on. Here is the good news; we can help with a great suggestion. The following is a timeless classic that will NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE. Browse through the large variety of styles, prices and designs. We assure you that you can NOT go wrong.


Lockets
