'I'm pregnant at Christmas and husband's awful gift made me feel discarded' A mum-to-be has been left feeling "discarded" this Christmas thanks to her husband's lacklustre efforts - with his half-hearted gift lacking a "personal touch".
At six months pregnant, she's now preparing to host Christmas for her family at her new home while her husband spends the day separately with his own family - as they have done for the duration of their eight-year marriage.
According to this disheartened wife, gifts are her "love language" - something her husband is well aware of - and yet his present lacked any of the thought and consideration that would have lifted her spirits during what has already been a "tough" festive season.
Taking to Mumsnet, the unnamed woman wrote: "The 'gift' he left behind is just an envelope with a Christmas card and a printed voucher for a massage - midweek only, booked during a Black Friday sale (I almost booked it myself).
Instead of looking forward to their last Christmas as a couple before parenthood, the expectant mother now feels disappointed, especially given that her siblings have already let her down over hosting arrangements.
