[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People with money but no breeding or values may do this ... but I do not believe that people with old money do this. Unless you want to equate it to not having your head chopped off because you delivered a male heir to the king. Hopefully, we have evolved beyond that, no?[/quote] Actually baby gifts have always been common in the upper classes, predating the founding of America and stretching forward to today. [/quote] Baby gifts not push presents, and in Europe they don't do showers but give gifts after the baby is born![/quote] Renaissance Europeans pretty much invented the push present. Look up "disco da parto" - an elaborate painted tray given by the husband to his wife during her lying in period postpartum. People would come to visit her with gifts to celebrate the baby, and the family would serve delicacies on the push present tray which they would later hang up on the wall.[/quote]
