Have you received a gift/s from your DP/DF/DH's after the birth of your child/ren? I personally didn't receive a gift from DF after the birth of DD1, although a few people asked if I did I have been reading about it lately and how a lot of women expect a present! WDYT? and also, please tell me what your thoughts are on this article! - offensive? TIA
