AIO for being upset that my husband didn’t get me anything for my first Mother’s Day ?

My (28F) husband (29M) and I just had our first child in January. Today was my first Mother’s Day. We saw his family on the Saturday and had lunch with my family on Sunday.

A few weeks before, I told him that I wanted him to do a little something special for me to celebrate my first Mother’s Day. I would have been fine with literally anything; flowers, chocolate, getting ice cream, etc. I also sent him a reel of a baby typing with a quote saying something along the lines of get mom something special for Mother’s Day since she takes such good care of me. So, he did know that Mother’s Day was coming and that I was expecting him to step up.

When I woke up Sunday, I don’t remember exactly what I said to him but I asked about my gift and his answer was that he didn’t have the time to get me anything. We literally went to the florist later that morning to get my family flowers (mom, grandma and SIL). He stayed in the car with the baby.

When we came home after lunch, he went outside to work on his truck and I stayed alone with the baby. I held back tears since we came back. He was in and out of the house until 19h-19h30 and then he watched hockey. The baby wasn’t sleeping and was fussing so they went for a drive.

I’m home alone now and I feel stupid for crying cause I didn’t get a gift. Like on one hand I don’t feel like I was asking too much but it also seems like such a silly thing to get worked up about. AIO ?

PS: not my first language so sorry for any mistakes🩷
