@Sorocly I'm usually the same but as it was my first mother's day I just wanted it to feel a little more special and not have to deal with a grump all day 😅 Your relationship sounds very healthy and I'm glad you are appreciated everyday as you deserve ❤️
In the same boat today! My partner messaged ‘happy Mother’s Day mum & mol’ in the group chat to me and his mum, I was annoyed because don’t I deserve my own bloody Mother’s Day post?! He then worked in our garden for the day so I basically spent the day on my own with our baby and dog whereas I thought we’d have a family day! Not how I expected my first Mother’s Day to be at all!!

I don’t know… my husband has been ill today and really tired as he barely slept last night. I think it’s more about how you feel in general rather than about the pressure of the one day. But that’s just a personal opinion that I have - I never celebrated Christmas or birthdays or things like that prior to meeting my husband, as it’s just not the done thing in my family. In fact, today was actually Father’s Day for me, as I’m Spanish. Perhaps working in Marketing has made me even more cynical over the years, but I see it as one big con. And don’t get me wrong, I’d be annoyed at hubby if he didn’t do anything, but would be quite satisfied with just a card, as he makes me feel valued and seen and appreciated most other days 😅
No of course not your first Mother’s Day is honestly the most special , you want the recognition for all the sleepless nights and dirty diapers etc. He could’ve done something small and I’m sure it would’ve meant the world some men just really don’t understand what certain things mean to us
@Molly exactly! You do deserve your own post! A first mother's day is very special and we won't get another one (a first to another child maybe but not as a mum) I wouldn't have been too bothered if it wasn't my first one, I didn't even expect anything amazing just a nice relaxed day spent all together
