No Christmas card from my baby

[mumtoababygirl]

This year is my first Christmas as a Mum. It took us over a decade to have our baby. I asked my DH back in November if he was going to get me a Christmas card from the baby, he said yes.

I know it’s silly and I know it’s not really from her, but I just would love something that said Mum on it.

He hasn’t got me one.

I’ve been laid here awake for the best part of two hours being so upset about it. I’ve come to the conclusion that he just doesn’t care about me. I’m not asking for a special, custom card from Etsy, just to pop into Tesco (which he passes) on his way home from work. He knows how much I would love it and it would mean to me.

AIBU to be so upset? It’s just a card and not even actually from my baby?

It makes me sad that so many people say you're ridiculous. Surely the point of being a good partner is that if there's something within your power to do that will make your partner happy, you do it (obviously assuming this goes both ways and doesn't mean doing anything harmful!) whether or not it seems silly to them or to others.

But, if he's otherwise a good partner and dad, don't blow this out of proportion, just have a chat to him after Christmas about how much sentimental things like that matter and that you want to trust that he will do things when he says he will.

Did you get one in the end?

I was also wondering if you got one in the end.
