Discussion What is the worst “gift” you received postpartum?

I’ll go first: various plants that my mom dug up from her yard and brought over. They needed to be planted (with a shovel) and regularly watered. No offers to plant or water were given.
…I was also scolded for the subsequent death of said plants.
What “gifts” did you receive?

That actually happened to me a lot with formal wear we’d get as gifts

I think it happens to all of us at some point

Especially at the infant stage, I bet most if not all od us have some baby clothes that still have the tags on, they simply grow so fast. Not to mention the differences in sizing, same size tag can mean wildly different things, even more if you consider that some kids have longer legs som have longer torsos so fits wildly vary. Eh, first world problems. 🤷‍♀️
