hello,
i would like some advice please.
my mum buys gifts from my now 5yr old girl for my Birthday and mothers day.
i now have a 6 month old baby. my mum for my birthday bought small gifts from them to me with a card from each to mummy.
my husband was upset about this as he buys gifts from them and cards,and always has done.
He feels it is only his responsibility and let it go in the past but now with a second child and her giving cards and gifts from his 6 mth baby to me his wants it stopped.
i think its nice for my mum to do this.but understand what his saying.
it was the cards that pushed it as i now have 4 mummy cards on display that people question about.
is she overstepping the mark.
any advice please.thanks

Yes she is absolutely overstepping the mark. She isn’t respecting his place as your husband and the children’s Father.

How would you feel if his Mum bought cards and gifts for your DH?

You need to speak to your Mum and put a stop to it.

Be kind but be firm.

I would take the view that cards and gifts are nice things, not something to have an arguement about.

Just let it be. It's sweet and kind.
Shows how much you are loved.

I take the position that your primary loyalty is to your husband and that you don’t allow your parents to hurt his feelings unnecessarily.

Respect your husband and ask your mum just to give you presents from her, not you and your husband's kids.
