Still on speaking terms and we have a young child. I still love her, but I think it's heading to divorce.

Just a pretty Merry Christmas card. Don't get one of those "For my dear husband/wife" type of cards. Get a generic one and write a little note inside wishing them well.
I was divorced in December of 2006 and I even got him a Christmas gift.

If you think you're headed for a divorce, why would you get her a card? Just because you're on speaking terms and share a child does not mean you share the same things anymore... and exchanging cards and gifts is one of those things. I think it would be mildly misleading if you were to give her one. You could tell her happy holidays or merry Christmas or whatever when you see her, but the other things need to come to an end.
You don't still love her.. by the way. You may still care for her, but I would really have to hope that love is reserved for more special situations. It's not that easily given out...and shouldn't be.

If you still want to be with her, you should tell her, and there is no better time then Christmas!! Give her a really sweet card and tell her you want to work things out! That will be a great Christmas gift to her and your child! Good luck! I hope everything works out well for you two! Merry Christmas!

If you need our help to get her back, it's unlikely to be successful. None of us know her or her problems with the relationship. None of us know you, or how you've been behaving. Stop reading these answers, spend some time alone in a quiet place and think about who your wife really is; think about what she likes and doesn't like. Undoubtedly, she has told you the these things. The sentences begin with, "You never..." and "I wish you would..." Try to do the things she said in the card, which is different then promising to do them or begging for another opportunity to do them.
If you are actually going to take advice from us, I need more information about why the relationship is failing. Otherwise, I have no idea how to direct you in your behavior.
In short, the answer is very fact dependent.

Send her a card telling her you want to stay together as a family. That would be the best Christmas gift you could ever give your child.

You don't get her a card. You get her a gift. She's still your wife. Give it all you got now, or you'll loose it all for sure.
Try some romance. give her a cd with songs from Dean Martin (return to me) and Frank Sinatra (come fly with me) and other such mood inspiring lyrics.

Don't send a card. Send roses to her work! It always makes me feel special to get something from my husband that I can show off to the other girls at work. It makes a woman feel like you understand how she feels; it makes us feel special. It could be her favorite candy or something she really likes, perfume.... etc... I suspect you still hope you can work it out. Women want to know you do listen to them. Send something that will show you have payed attention to details of what is special to her.

What are you trying to accomplish by getting this card? Do you want to reconcile? If you really think she wants a divorce and you want it to stay amicable and not smother her, I'd not get her a card unless she had gotten you one first.

Find a nice card and send it to both of them. It's the Season.
