Tell me to get a grip, but I'm hurt

Yes, I know Mother's Day is made up crap, but I gave birth on Wednesday and nothing.

My older child is at his fathers house this weekend, although he gave me an early card before I went into hospital. My ex sorted that out with him, which was a nice thing to do.

Sat here this morning, in agony breastfeeding and still in pain from the section and dh has said nothing. Although he has emailed his mum to say happy Mother's Day and made a racket about getting her a card and posting it in time last week.

He even popped out yesterday to the card shop as ds is going to a birthday party mon eve, I thought he might have got me something from the baby then.

What really hurts is the day after my section it was his birthday. I took cards to hospital with me, got him a daddy one from the baby. The midwife even did the baby's footprints in it for me. He was so happy. But nothing for me?

I know I'm being stupid, but I've had such a shit pregnancy, the section was planned but actually it was horrific. I just thought there would be something.

OP I sympathise. You've just had his baby, you're having a tough time, a small gesture like a card would have been nice/meant a lot to you.
Don't let it fester though, i would tell him how you feel and then move on from it. i'm sure he didn't mean to upset you, and as you say he is being supportive helpful otherwise.
