I do not think you should be mad. Perhaps his Mom has wanted this for a long time. Perhaps she put off buying herself many things as she was raising your husband and his siblings. I do not know her age, health, or financial condition, so it is hard to say anything concrete. Now if she has mega bucks, and is healthy and vibrant, and uses her influence over her son against you, than by all means, give your Hubby a piece of your mind. If not , and the mom in law and you are friends, than tell your husband how nice it was for him to give these gifts to mom. At the same time tell him that you would prefer a very special bottle of the bubbly for your next romantic get together, and that although the diamond bracelet was nice for mom, the one you are expecting very soon is a little more extravagant. Good luck, and you go girl.

It really depends has he gave you a diamond bracelet in the past or champagne?? If so maybe he thought since he got you this before then he needed to get you something else. Did you ask for dishes or silverware? If he has never got this kind of stuff for you then I think it's strange for him to buy this for his mother but that is just my thoughts..

Should u be mad? Well that's up to u. Personally I wouldn't give a flying duck if my husband gave his mom a diamond jewelry set. Afterall, that's his mother.

I dont care what my husband gives his mom, she raised him and she comes once a week to give me a break from the kids so I can do errands, sleep or housework.
I would love to get some new dishes,lol.

what IS it with women and diamonds, anyway!
Whats the matter - you didn't get enough stuff?
Your husband could have been sick and unable to give you anything.
You could be a widow and have nothing but an empty Christmas full of memories.
Put your life in perspective - and stop being so selfish!

Your husband is realistic, dishes and siverware for kitchen to have meal everyday, diamond is uneatable, just to watch, and show his respect to mother - no mother no your husband

Ah, ya...that is a little weird. Actually you should have received all of the above. Mom would have settled for a visit... a normal one anyway.

how long have you known this about him.you should have let him marry his mom instead of you.the gifts he gave you are not just for you but for your house hold.with his gift he is keeping you in the kitchen.he does not respect you AND FRANKLY DOES NOT DESERVE.BY GIVING HIS MOM THOSE GIFTS HE IS TELLING YOU THAT YOU MEAN LITTLE TO HIM.LET ME ASK YOU,HOW MANY TIMES HAS HE TOLD YOU YOU CAN LEAVE IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT?

Yes, that would be very upsetting! Wow, how very inconsiderate of him.
It is done and over with though, and I am sure that you have talked to him about this already. If you have not, I would.
Christmas will be coming up again soon, this year, let's hope he makes up for his mistakes! If not, go out and buy something very nice for yourself, and tell him THANK YOU!
