Would you have expected presents for your unborn baby?

[JinglePrunes]

Or is my 7-month-pg SIL just being a bit...grasping??
Was told today that of course they were expecting the foetus would get christmas presents.
I would like to blame hormones (and first-time-mother-syndrome ).

Oh and of course I won't be buying something for a person not yet born to open on Christmas Day.

Hoxton how could you be furious about recieving a gift?

paulapb, are you serious?

God, she must have been talking to my MIL who bought my 13 week old foetus a Molton Brown baby gift set 2 years ago. ds2 is 17 months now and the set remains largely unused. My SIL was pg this time last year and even went into early labour on 23rd Dec. I didn't buy anything even then as the baby would have been a month early.

My Mum started buying when I was about 12/13 weeks, she bought loads of blue clothes as she had a hunch I was carrying a boy. 20 week scan showed distinct lack of a penis so she's started again in pink now! tbh I've blocked it out, thrown the stuff on top of the wardrobe and pretending it doesn't exist.

nice pressie for mum, but not dc.

Bagpuss - who's minding the shop?

i thought it was really inappropriate ppb. and most other people on this thread seem to agree with me . ds was born at the end of january & i got a few baby presents the christmas before, but they were actually given to me. i was cross then too! pregnancy hormones a-go-go.

Hey Hoxty

ProfY, who knows? The mice maybe?
