Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
What are your thoughts about that? I don't mind the cards & Happy Mother's Day to a Mommy-to-Be but I have received so many just 'Happy Mother's Day' texts & facebook comments. Am I just being overly paranoid? I know it is all meant in good gestures.
What do you think?

I have been getting them too & don't mind them at all. Just remember, we are still mom's no matter how you look at it. Our baby is closer then anyone else's!

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
i dont mind but im still paranoid since this pregnancy has been a rollercoaster ride so i try not to get myself too excited. its still sweet though and since im so hormonal i try not to get teary eyed.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
the only people who know are my immediate family, dh's immediate family and 2 of my closest friends.
my fam all gave me mother-to-be cards last night (we had a big dinner at my mom's house last night, my sister has to go to her MIL today - they take turns every year). My mom gave me a top that looks like a tent. I loved the thought, but was so upset with the top - hormones "do I look like that will fit me?????????"

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I got a couple of phone calls, a couple of text messages and a card from my friend (thanks Veronica! ) so far. DH didn't even say it to me and he's being a cranky butt because he had to work overnight last night. When he asked if we were celebrating for me the other day I said not really, but you can get me a mommy-to-be card!
He didn't.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I considered myself a mother the day I found out I was pregnant. Many people frowned upon it and said I was being too comfortable. I don't care. It's my life, my body, my decision and my baby.
I am actually surprised how many people considered me a mother today. My MIL sent me flowers, my mother sent a card, my DH bought a gift and my 2 best friends sent me stuff too.
It's a personal preference and mine is that I am my DDs mother already whether she is in my arms or not.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
yes - and while I wasn't expecting anything from anyone - i've had many texts, facebook messages, etc...
I did also get a card from my parents...
dave did ask me if i wanted anything, because he had been wracking his brain.....trying to figure things out....so it was sweet to even be asked!!!

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I got a few gifts and a few cards. I was touched by everyone who thought of me this mothers day. I can understand why some people may be uncomfortable with the distinction until the baby is in their arms, but for myself I feel very much like a mother already to this  inside my belly.

I got a few texts. It was nice. I'm still in shock about being pregnant, so I wasn't expecting it!

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I got Mommy-to be Cards (plus a gift from my Mom & Sister) and text messages a lot today. I loved it.
DH bought me flowers when he went out to get me breakfast this morning...I wasn't even expecting that, I didn't want anything from him.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I know what you mean Kelly. I prefer the Happy Mothers Day to be sentiments. I do appreciate anyone wishing me though bc they are recognizing my pregnancy which is sweet. My aunt even bought me flowers and my mom got me a gift (well it was also from my dog bc im his mommy ) Many friends send cards and text and i just was happy that they thought of me.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I got cards and gifts too. All mommy to be related this year but I've been getting Mother's Day wishes, cards and gifts for years for my pets (got my cat on Mother's Day 15 years ago, she's my first "baby"!), being an Aunt and Godmother so I'm used to it and love it!

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
I have been getting them, and thanking the folks that have been sent cards and texts, but I keep reminding everyone that I am a Momma-To-Be.
I just don't want to jinx myself.

Re: Are friends & family wishing youa Happy Mother's Day?
Pretty much everyone did. I got a lot of Mother to be cards, a few text messages, my parents even bought me a present and my MIL bought me something little.
My DH got me a Mia Bossi diaper bag (a few weeks back) for Mother's Day and yesterday morning he got me a card from him and and flowers.
I felt strange but it was very cute!!!!!
