| You're pregnant not a mom. When you give birth you'll be a mom and then you can guilt your husband into all the gifts you want to.. |

| You absolutely deserved a present, but in your husband's defense you should have dropped some hints if you weren't sure he was getting you something. Did you give him something for Father's Day? |

| Just be thankful he was there to spend the day with you. My husband was deployed the mother's day I was pregnant. I would have much rather been waking up to him next to me, with no expectations of a gift, rather than waking up to an empty bed.I know I'll get a thumbs down or two or three but it's just IMHO. |

| My bf and I have a child and I'm pg and generally we don't get each other gifts. We cook a nice meal for each other and go do something the other person wants to but we think its cute when you get something homemade from a 5 yr. old versus something you would just buy. |

| my boyfriend celebrated mother's day with me, giving me a massage and having a really good day. I don't think its bad luck, I think it's cute, makes me feel special. Just because i can't hold the baby yet doesn't make me less of a mommy |

| My sister in law got a card from her husband when it was Mother's Day. She was about 38 weeks pregnant. I can understand if you are a little upset. You are a mother in your mind and probably in his. Men are just not as sensitive to our wants as we would like them to be.Could be a lot worse though. Last year was my First mother's day. My daughter was 9 months old. My husband said something about needling to call his mother and that he forgot to get her a card. Then I said, Well did you forget my card as well. He actually turned to me and said, "Why no- you are not a mother, so why would I get you a card anyway" Of course our daughter was in my arms at the time. I was shocked and horrified and hurt. |

We don't really go in for mothers or fathers day at our place, feeling that it is all a bit of nonsense. The only reason we even bother to remember is because we'd better ring our own mothers, or they'll crack it!I don't see any reason to get offended by not receiving a present from your husband. You are not his mother. Since you are so offended, ask him to go and buy you some flowers. If he gives you any waffle about bad luck, tell him your feelings are terribly hurt, and because he said that, only flowers AND chocolate will make you feel better. You are hormonal, he should humour you  |

Mother's day is not all about presents but appreciating your mother for all she has done. Being a mother is a selfless act. A mother sacrifices everything for their children and only expects love and respect back from her child. Right now, you are sacrificing your body because it's not easy carrying that baby in there either. As a mother, you know that without you your child could not survive in this world because it needs your care and love. Just wait until he/she starts drawing you pictures and bringing you those odd things we all made in school for our moms.Those gifts may not be diamonds or flowers, but you will treasure them as if they were. But it's always nice being remembered with a super awesome gift is it not?  In defense to your hubby, well you aren't his mother. Believing that was rather silly of him but it shows he doesn't want to risk luck or had no other excuse.Hope you did the same on father's day :DLook on the bright side...He cant get away with it next year ;DThey say a woman becomes a mother when she is pregnant but a man becomes a father when he holds the baby.(Got this from the movie Juno lol) |
