This is a strange present?

[Milkfreemoomum]

Dsis received a present from someone on her DP side of the family. It's a picture that's this person got designed and it is the place where Dsis baby was conceived with baby date of birth. I think the picture is nice and date of birth but how would you explain to your child when they're older. I mean as a child/teenager I'd be a bit grossed out if my parents hung a plaque like that in the house. Anyone think this is a strange present? I mean could have done a cute plaque with date, time and weigh etc?

How on earth do they know where the baby was conceived?! That's the weirdest part tbh...

I agree Mite!

Thats what you call insider information

Overstated a bit... this is the result

One of my parents told me where I was conceived. I can't explain it but I'd rather not know. We seem to prefer our parents not to have been sexual beings!

What miteandbite said!!

If it was a day trip to the seaside I'd feel pretty grim about it. If it was dating 9mths back to a 3 week tour of the US or the Bahamas I'd feel less 🙄

The new fad for pictures / prints with key dates and words like “love”, “husband”, “commitment” are utterly naff and will die a death in about 2 years.

The worst that I saw was in a house I looked around and they had prints everywhere that said “Jenna + Keith = love infinity”

I think they will have chucked the print in the bin by the time the kids become old enough to understand what it means

If I’ve managed to conceive this month future DC was brought into being thanks to a quickie in a hotel room during their uncle’s wedding. It has occurred to me that that is not information I would want to share.

I don’t know any details about my conception but I do know mum got a BFP while on the sleeper train to Edinburgh and I have always been rather admiring of her ability to POAS in a jerky train toilet at 4am

It was a long trip they took away not in the UK but still I think it's a strange gift to give your brother and sister in law. When people see it they will ask oh why does it say * then they will have to tell them why??

All this date crap irritates me. I have a colleague who has numerous 'special' dates scattered throughout the year. Not a month goes by without a celebration of some sort

Maybe people will assume baby was born rather than conceived there?

Everyone knows the baby was born in the UK

But surely, timings being what they are, they can only assume that's where their child was actually conceived? I mean, you may think you conceived during that smutty weekend in Paris, but what if it was actually the night you got home to Solihull?

Brooklyn Beckham?

Same with those folk who name their children after the place where they were conceived. Good job we don't all do that, or there would be a lot of folk with 'Backseat' as a middle name...

Tent in Devon for me - I must have been 40 when DM told me and there was no warning or I'd've blocked my ears!

Imagine being 'Streatham Beckham' or 'Lyme Regis Beckham'?

Or noideaiwasdrunk Beckham

I just personally wouldn't put it up or give it as a gift 😂

I'd think it was odd..

Mind you, I was allegedly conceived at (I assume AFTER!) a Subterranea Britannica conference in 1979...

Proving I think that my nerd roots go very deep indeed.

Dh has a friend who is an oversharer. At ds's last birthday party he loudly told me the exact position in which he and his dw conceived their baby . I could make some very interesting personalised artwork to commemorate their DC's birth...

@trinpy wow! I never do get why people over share private stuff like that. I'm sure most people were cringing!
