It’s my first mothers days after having a baby. Baby is 10 months now, and I’m excited to spend it w my husband and baby…but his mum has said she’s upset she’s not coming over to celebrate …(read below for more info)
Bear in mind, she doesn’t help us AT ALL. She barely sees her grandson and is always out (even for her bday when we said we’d do something for her) I really don’t want to celebrate my first Mother’s Day with her. Am I being unfair?

No you are not being unfair! I would take her comment with a pinch of salt. In one ear and out the other! Leave it at that and dont rise to it/give in to her.
She wants you to feel bad and invite her round. If you dont want her there, dont!
Ignore her and maybe arrange something for next weekend or another time? My mum is also the same at the moment. I spent the weekend just gone with her and sent her a gift in the post to arrive tomorrow. It's just a guilt trip, but it's your first mothers Day, not hers!! Do what makes you happy so you dont end up resenting her for taking your day. She will get over it💕x
At least you’re not spending with her! Ignore her comment you’ll have a lovely day together. It’s my first Mother’s Day too but my husband is taking the baby and going to see his mum in the morning so I’ll be alone (I could go but I don’t want to). I’m in your boat want my first Mother’s Day to be about me! I can share them after this one x
