What is a Push Present?

A push present, or a push gift, is given by a woman’s husband, partner or family after giving birth to a child. A push gift is a newer tradition in Canada, however the origin has been prevalent in India, the United Kingdom for hundreds of years, where new mothers were given small gifts to make them feel special or thank them for a 'job well done.'
