Don’t feel bad to each their own. People especially in laws will always have opinions and since a different generation will often have a differing opinion. Do what u want to do on that day and forget the opinions

Did she spend the entire day with her kids? 
I’ve learned mother in laws only do stuff like that when they are upset they weren’t more like you when their kids were little. You’re not a bad mom for taking care of yourself on YOUR day!

When my oldest was little I felt like I had to spend the while day with her. Now if I could get away with spending time by myself doing something relaxing I would. But I’m a single mom so that’s not going to happen. Every one raises kids different. If you can relax and be in a better mood for your kids go for it.
This one is simple. Your husband wanted to celebrate the mother of his children. His mother comes over and gives that woman a bad time. Tell her to take it up with her son, not you. If she had done a proper job raising him to be the self-centered old bat that she is, there never would have been a problem.

Your mother in law is a bitch. That is the exact way mothers day should be spent, enjoying yourself, pampering, and self care!
Don’t feel guilty!! Your husband gave you that communication to do for you!! That’s between you and him not you him and mother in law. Your kids were well taken care of I’m sure!!

doing things for yourself and resetting is making you a GREAT mom.
you spend 24/7 with your kids. your mother in law is speaking out of her a*s.
like you said, you never get to do these . and because your husband encouraged it. yall were on the same page
take what she says with grain of salt
It’s called Mother’s Day. Therefore I feel that you should spend it being happy whatever that looks like is up to the person. And that being said each one could look different. That’s my opinion.

No don’t feel guilty
Being alone and allowed to do whatever I want without being responsible for anything or anyone else is how I request to spend my Mothers Day every year
My husband is always happy to grant my wish
When my mother in law was alive my husband would take the kids a spend the day with her and every year she would call me and thank me
She never understood that I just wanted to be alone to do whatever I wanted for me

You should not feel one bit guilty.Your husband new you needed a day to pamper yourself well deserved!!!
Guilt is a lie. Everyone’s ideal Mother’s Day looks different and yours is allowed to look different than your Mother in laws or any other mother.
mil is incorrect … then again, she has memories etc , let it go
As you said you spent the morning and evening with them. Maybe she is Jealous because no one thought of doing that for her! (Most likely the case🤷🏻♀️) This is also your day…you spent your afternoon doing “self-care”, my guess is that was the present you needed. Look at it this way…HER opinions are none of your business. Seriously her opinions are based on her and she is welcome to them, but they reflect her and not you. I hope you had a wonderful day because honestly, there are many of us who would have LOVED a few hours to ourselves!

Well honey, get over feeling guilty. Because this was YOUR Mother’s Day gift. Given to you by your husband. He appreciates you, he recognized your needs and he gave it to you. Plus he got some good quality one on one time with his kids. What a perfect day!!!

Lmao. Your MIL is trash. Throw her out 
Mothers Day is about YOU as the mom. What YOU want. She as a mom wants to be a horrible wretch of a woman obviously. You needed a break & your husband was kind enough to do that for you.
Baby it was Mothers day, we have our entire lives to spend with them, a day out for YOU is well deserving

You’re a mother every single day and take care of everyone else, so don’t feel bad for taking a day to yourself! Especially on the one day we are celebrated. She sounds bitter. Don’t let her negative remarks make you feel like you don’t deserve to take care of yourself as well.

You deserve time for yourself. Your husband told you to go so go enjoy a few hours for me time. He can tell his mom to but out. You spent morning and evening with the family and had alone time. I just wish my kids had time for me. But all busy with their own things and families. Tell your mother in law to but out of your family affairs…probley mad because you weren’t there to see her.
I did the same and it was GREAAAAATTTTTT not hearing mom every 13 seconds.
Your MIL should mind her business.
You’re doing just fine!!!

First off, why is your husband telling you what your mother in law said? If anything , he should’ve defended you and then not mentioned it to you… especially knowing it was negative and would affect you.
Unless it was one of your kids who heard and let you know? In which point I would confront her and tell her not to speak about me negatively in front of my kids ever again.

Mother’s day is the perfect day to do something just for YOU!!! I never ever put my self or my needs & especially my wants b4 my kids!! But a couple x’s in Mother’s Day, especially when they got older, they wud run me a bath, light me some candles & put my book I was reading on top of my towels. Also had me a little sumthn–sumthn to eat & drink ready!! I wasn’t allowed to come out for at least 2 hours!! Best presents EVER!!! So PLEZ sweety… ENJOY!!! Sounds like u deserve it!! 
Darlin, it was mother’s day! Who cares what you do on mother’s day? The whole day is about YOU and making sure YOU feel appreciated and loved. You havent always had your kids in your life, they were part of your life when they came into the world, but to your kids you are their world. You are their first protecter, their first friend, and their number one supporter. Don’t let anyone tell you that you are a bad mother because in my eyes as long as you fight for your kids, and you work hard for your kids to make sure they have everything they need (and/or want) you are a good parent. No amount of parenting books or things of the sort can prepare you for the battles and sacrifices you make for your babies. Parenting is not easy, parenting is not fun all the time, sometimes you just need a break. Its mentally, physically and emotionally draining and exhausting. If you need time to yourself, there is no guilt you should feel. Breaks are needed, you arent a bad mom for spending the day making sure you are okay for your babies. I hope you had a good mothers day despite what your MIL did/said. Time alone is not a crime. It has never and will never mean you’re a bad momma. I hope you can find peace, honey!
Don’t feel bad. You deserved that day to yourself on way or another. It was a present from your husband and he should of said that to his mom and told her that you did this morning and planned on going out to eat for diner.
Don’t feel guilty about a day you earned for being a mom and being able to relax and enjoy it.
