You may have heard the term “push present” on your Instagram feed, from a friend who recently had a baby, or as an eager request from your expecting partner. The phrase is quite literal and refers to the relatively recent phenomenon of presenting a gift, traditionally jewelry, to your partner as a token of appreciation for courageously pushing a child into this world through the miracle of childbirth.
When is it Appropriate to Give a Push Present?
Hollywood’s depiction of childbirth leaves out one major detail: post-op. The hours and days following the delivery of your sweet, precious baby are a bit chaotic: from nurse check-ups on mom and baby, feeding, changing, and, worrying about baby, and everything in between.
So, when exactly do you have time to give your partner a push present?
Some partners choose to give the expecting mommy a push present before delivery when life is calm and sleep is abundant. Others wait until there is a lull post-delivery when the baby is sleeping and there is a quiet moment of affection between the new parents. Still, others prefer to give their sentimental gift after returning home from the hospital. However or whenever you choose to present your push present to your partner is entirely up to you.
6 Push Present Ideas
How do you decide what to give your partner for a push present? Jewelry is a traditional and classic choice that will undoubtedly show your partner how much you appreciate their courage throughout the arduous childbearing process. After all, diamonds are a girl’s best friend!

Add a Band to Her Ring Stack
An engagement ring and a wedding band signify devotion and a lifelong commitment to honor and cherish your partner, respectively. These are pretty monumental life events that create the stunning bridal stack on your ring finger.
But you know what else is a monumental life event? Bringing a baby girl or boy into this world! Why not add a sentimental band to your partner’s ring stack to represent this momentous occasion?
