Husband ruining all my plans

Just need to moan and feel sorry for myself with you all! And possible hear someone call my husband a pig? Will definitely cheer me up 😂
My son is 2 and finally understands who Santa is and that Santa is gonna bring him presents this year..
I've been saving my pennies for months and been so careful about what gifts I pick for my son because I wanted things I know he would love and appreciate
I ended up with about 4 presents for him but each and every one was thought out and special..
I just want to make it a lovely memory for him and us..
only problem is my husband.
About a week or two ago I left my husband to watch my son for a couple hours while I went to the hospital for an appointment (pregnant) when I came back my husband had found a hidden presents and opened it and gave it to my son! I was a bit annoyed but not too unhappy as it was only a bubble bath set so not one of the main presents! This morning however I've woken up to my son playing with the most expensive and the present I was most excited about to see his reaction when he opens it on Christmas morning!
I've saved and shopped and planned everything to make this special and he keeps ruining it! I don't have a lot of money to keep replacing gifts at this rate my little one will have nothing left to open on Christmas Day..

Hello everyone
Just gonna say one last time
Thank you for your concern for myself and my son I can assure you we are safe and in no way in any danger
I appreciate every single one of your posts and comments
I have had serious conversations with my husband
I believe we both have a lot to work on together and individually before I can make any rash decisions about our relationship
I'm not going to have my post removed because I'd like to reread all the comments in future as and when I feel I need to and just in case anything in here can help someone else at all in any way
Thank you all
Merry Christmas xx

I do hope that you can, and do, have a very Happy Christmas OP. I know that your son will have a great time because he has you as his Mum. I hope that by next year your husband has learned what is, and is not acceptable, so that 2022's Christmas can be wonderful for all of you xx

Your husband is mean and lazy

He said my son was crying when he had to leave for work so he had to do something to distract him

Lazy parenting.

Good luck to him if he needs to rummage for an expensive present every time he has to distract him!

Your DH is a pig. He is a pig. He is definitely a pig. I’d have his arse for a bacon sandwich; the utter pig.
I just hope he does not repeat this behaviour and replaces the gifts with others your son will love.
He is a big pig.
