It's my first pregnancy but I already consider myself as a mother. I feel like I want to celebrate this day although I haven't given birth. My point is, do you think it's okay to celebrate Mother's Day? I feel so silly cuz I don't have anyone special around me. My brother was the only one who greeted me and the person I expected to greet me did not, well i mean the father of my baby. We have a long distance relationship and we come online to chat everyday. He has not come online yet and I feel upset (teary eyes). I want to go out and celebrate alone. I feel like I'm being ignored or that nobody really cares for me. I love being pregnant and the idea that I'm gonna be a mommy in 3 months. I talk to my baby, read to him, sing, and even play and I can't wait to hold him in my arms. I don't know why I'm feeling so alone right now(crying now).
Do your husbands or partners greet you happy Mother's Day even on your first pregnancy? I just want to know if it matters to them.
I was looking forward to surprising my boyfriend on father's day but it seems like it doesnt really matter to him or he still doesnt consider us as parents cuz the baby's not around yet. he really cares about the baby but i just dont understand this.
Happy Mother's Day..
Hey Im 32 weeks pregnant with a baby girl 
Yes we should consider ourselves as mothers while our babies are in our bellies we are responsible for their well being, eating, talking to them,protecting our bellies ( I dont even like people touching mine.. except my boyfriend..lol) making sure they comfortable when they moving around in our bellies all night which causes us to get less sleep because we are tossing and turning..lol
And the most of all we are creating life..
We've been mothers since they day that egg and sperm met.. lol
Guys dont get it. .and they probably never well.. Oh well
Happy Mother's Day…and Congrats on your little one

Happy Mother's Day!
You ARE a mommy and you should not feel weird celebrating it. Go treat yourself to something, and tell your boyfriend "Hey buddy, did you forget today was something special?"

I know exactally how you feel!!…My boyfriend was like yeah next mothers day ill write you a nice poem and i was like uhh no you can do this this mothers day! a mother is someone who takes care and protects their baby and as far as im concerned thats what ive been doing the last 4 months. So yes i Think i am a mother. so long story short hes gonna write me a poem:) lol
Im sorry your bf hasnt chatted with you yet I just think it doesn't click with the guys till the babies actually here they always say "im gonna be a dad" but we consider ourselves mothers right now. Just talk to him my bf understood hopefully yours will too.
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL PREGNANT LADIES!!

I don't think being pregnant qualifies you as a mother, once you are a mother you'll know what I mean!

Happy Mothers Day to you!!! You are right, you are a mother already!! And congrats to you!!
As for the father of the baby…..well….sometimes guys are just dense and don't get it at all. It would be nice of him to acknowledge you in some way, but don't get your hopes up. If he doesn't do anything for you, you need to remind him that it is his responsibility to teach your child about Mothers Day as he or she grows up.
I was lucky enough to of already had my first child a month before Mothers Day. My husband was also clueless……but I plain outright told him that I expected him to step up to the plate. He did and I did also for Father's day. Our son is 5 years old now and between my husband and I we are teaching him to value his parents.
If no one else acknowledges you tomorrow, just remember that you are no one else's mother except for your children. And if your boyfriend/husband doesn't teach the child to value you, you must do that on your own.

I am sorry you feel this way( has a alot to do with media commerlisation), mothers day is techcniaclly for mothers you are going to be one very soon…
I was preg with my first during mothers day and had no expectation as I wasn't a mother yet and my child wasn't born(most mothers would say that you need to experience being a mom first and its the child that thnaks the mother for everything that they do for them) my husband at the time didn't acknowledge it on the day either I didn't get upset about it! Like someone said to me your partner/husband isn't your child does that make sense. I promise next mothers day will be super speacial because you will no what it means to be a mommy. You should be happy you are about to experience the most amazing thing in the world and be celebrating that becomming a mom. Though this mothers day he brought a card and some chocies and cleaned the house even though I didn't expect it (he said it was from our son) I am looking forward to my son making me hand made cards etc that will be priceless… try not to be to hard on your partner it is all new for him to. Hope you feel better congrats on preg!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS
I know how you feel. I'm not even sure if I'm pregnant, but I honestly feel like I am….I talked to my hubby because I didn't feel like I was "allowed" to celebrate mother's day. He said I should because our baby is there. You shouldn't feel weird. Your baby IS really there and he or she knows you are their mommy (even if no one else seems to care). Try talking to your boyfriend and simply asking him how he feels. I told my hubby I was sad because no one was going to do anything for me…this drops a subtle hint and lets him know how much this baby really does mean to you. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!! Enjoy it with your baby…if anyone else shows up then consider that as a bonus, if not, then you get special alone time with your soon to be child…after all, that is what mother's day is about right?…Enjoy having your baby go out with you, listing to music together, playing together, talking, or anything else you like to do…. Remember, your boyfriend and family don't make you a mother, your child does, try to enjoy having your baby inside of you..I can't think of anyone I'd rather spend mother's day with then my baby!! Go shopping for the baby, that always makes me feel better and the cashiers will most likely tell you happy mother's day :). I hope you have a wonderful day, you deserve it. Congrats and HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

Happy Mothers Day to you!!!!!!!!!! You're right you are a mother already, and most guys don't really get that. Most of the time guys have to see something for it to be really real lol if that even makes sense. Don't feel sad about noone being around on mothers day because you have the most important person to spend mothers day with right inside you =) Try and cheer up sweetie. I hope you have a good mothers day, try and do something that makes you happy and remember your little baby is right there with you.

I'm right there with you. I am 36 weeks along and got a card from a friend and my in-laws, but not even so much as a "Happy Mother's Day" from my husband. He's normally a very thoughtful guy… in fact, I usually get a Mother's Day card "from the cats", but he really dropped the ball this year. At first, I wasn't that upset… but as the day dragged on I got very emotional. (Don't ya just love being hormonal right now!?) I wasn't expecting a gift — a card or just a "Happy Mother's Day" would have been fine. Instead, I got to spend my first Mother's Day busting my butt cleaning the house and dealing with his attitude when I asked him to clean our shower (since I can't).
Guys are definitely dense. Hopefully just knowing that you're going to be holding your baby soon helped get you through the day!
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms-to-be!
