Hi, This is a query regarding little one's upcoming 1st year birthday celebration. My husband and I are at either ends of it. He does not want to celebrate it and I want to throw a party to thank all the people and above all show our little one how much he's loved. I'm upset with my husband because we've had a really rough time since we were pregnant and had lots of family issues. We've just managed to come out of this together (yes we were thinking of separating). There were lots of compromises made from either side but more so on my side and both of us agree. I quit my job, I followed traditions (I was brought up with none), supported his career and gave up many comforts to ensure that we could hold onto this relationship. I'm hurt and disappointed.

1. Am I wrong in asking for a celebration? (No we did not have a baby shower or a honeymoon or welcoming the baby due to stained family relationship)

2. Am I being a horrible person? Are my expectations too high? I seek my husband's support but instead he chooses his side of the family time and again. It hurts too much. I've gone to the point where I begin to believe I'm depressed (which I know I'm not) and doing this just for fun!
I do not have people I can discuss this with and felt like asking here because I know I will not be judged. Pls understand my need to go anonymous. Looking forward for your experiences, guidance and support.

Thanks in advance..

P.S. I don't mind if you take any one's side. Just putting hurtful thoughts out. Yes, the villains are around and I can't do much. The only promise he's made so far is that there will be no interference in the upbringing of our child.
