Spin off to DH's not doing anything for Mothers Day
To all the ladies who's husbands didn't get you a gift or a card.
How will you handle Fathers Day?
Will you do anything for them or treat them the way they treated you?
Just curious.

Not there yet; we'll see next year if this happens to me. BUT, I don't think I would spoil his first father's day too. In fact, I think I might go a little over board so he would be more thoughtful the next year.

Re: Spin off to DH's not doing anything for Mothers Day
If my DH got me nothing then the favor would be returned for Father's Day. I'm sorry but if they can't get a freakin card for mother's day after all the things the mommy does then why should they get appreciated for Father's Day? What should they get appreciated for, for ignoring their wives on Mother's Day? Nope don't think so.

I couldn't agree more!

I agree with this also. My DH did get me a card and a Mother's Day Scratchoff and then from DS he had ME pick out what I wanted..At first I was a little upset that he couldn't pick something out, but, I got what I wanted and all in all am having a great day! Father's Day, I think I will do pretty good with DH. He does deserve it. If I didn't get a card or anything, then, I probably would do the same in return.

Re: Spin off to DH's not doing anything for Mothers Day
I am on the fence about this. I was planning since before Christmas to surprise him with either a compressor or a new grill (pretty big ticket items for us) for Father's Day. I was going to use $ from my bonus which I get this week. But since I got a card for Mother's Day and not much special attention I'm not sure I feel the need to lavish him with gifts. I made a huge brunch for my mom and family, cleaned the house by myself and basically worked all weekend to get ready for that. He got me a card from the baby which was nice but I don't know what I'll do for Father's Day at this point. Probably just let him opt out of childcare for the day - maybe. Maybe I'll make him dinner. On one hand I want him to realize these ARE important holidays (i'm not saying spend $500 on me, but you could think ahead and plan something for dinner, don't offer to change a diaper just DO it, etc.) and go all-out so he gets it, on the other hand I am pretty disappointed.

He won't care but I am doing NOTHING! My problem w/ him started before Mother's day, it just made it that much worst.. I refuse to go out of my way, he was so sweet last year, so it is not like he doesn't know that he is suppose to at least get a card (because that is all I care about)!

Re: Spin off to DH's not doing anything for Mothers Day
My DH really isn't into father's day.
Last year I got him a card, made him breakfast in bed and got him a picture frame that said "Daddy's Little Girl" and pic of Jordana.
This year I'll probably do the same, sans gift. Its just nice to remind him how sweet those little things are.
