Horrible mothers day rant

in September 2015 Moms
My first born was born the day before mothers day. Since then, 4 years ago I have never really had a mother's day because we did a birthday party instead. So when this year the two events were on different weekends I was super excited. It would be my first mothers day and the first one with both my little ones. Except my husband decided to stay up late the night before, sleep in on mothers day and have an attitude and give me the silent treatment all day because I was hurt. I only got a happy mothers day and that was it. I made all the meals, cooked, cleaned, watched the kids, and made my mom and grandma their gifts with the kids.

    That's awful. My husband didn't even notice it was Mother's Day until about 5 pm. I had even asked him if he got his mom anything for MOTHERS DAY. He was like 'sorry, I guess I don't think of you as a mom'. So of course, I didn't get anything. Whatever, he woke up early with the baby and made dinner.

    Aw at least he didn't know it was mothers day and still did nothing. The first year is a tricky year because it's new I suppose. I'm sorry he didn't make it special though. We all deserve it.

    Im really sorry. This was my first Mother's Day with LO and my birthday is the 15th which is the Sunday after Mother's Day. It was a bust for me as well. My husband was gone on Mother's Day (for totally good reason!) but when he got back he seemed completely uninterested in doing anything special for me. When he called Sunday morning we talked for about 15 minutes and before I got off the phone I all but had to pry a "happy Mother's Day" out of him. And that was all I got from him.

    Last year my husband didnt tell me anything until about 6 pm & thats because i told him it was sad that his dad & brother gave me a hug & told me happy mothers day instead of the 2 people who shouldve-him & DD(DD was 4 so i wasnt hurt with her).

    This year he didnt tell me either, but he took me to buy something of my choosing(i didnt find anything) & he ended up shopping for himself. I was pissed but whatever, I'll be shopping for myself on fathers day :tongue: 

    Us as moms/women expect alot from our husbands because we know we would do something nice for them. But guys are dumb & we need to tell them step by step what in the hell to do. Plus they can't take a"hint". & you know what DH has told me? To go right out & say what i feel/want because he doesn't know what I'm thinking. He has a point, but I agree however,that its not hard to say "happy mothers day" & "thank you for my kid/kids".

    Maybe you can tell him how you felt & expected & maybe next year will be better.

    I'm sorry mama. I didn't get anything but a 'happy mother's day' after being reminded it was mother's day either. My DH has a "thing" with holidays, which is basically just an excuse for not wanting to be responsible for doing anything or being expected to remember things. I don't find most holidays a big deal, so it doesn't bother me too much. But it would have been nice to be surprised on my first mother's day with flowers or something. Idk, not worth getting upset over for me. He does other things like watching for LO for two hours most mornings so I can sleep, I'll take it!

    My sister got me a card and no one else did anything. My BF ordered gifts but his card info was outdated so it got cancelled. He didn't reorder it.
