I saw your message today and my situation is no different. Don't lose hope, your husband will change someday. After 3 years of my marriage i could find some changes with husband. After our marriage, he never bought a gift for me till now. He has been taking care of his parents and sil. I never complained about that to him, i never demanded him for some gifts to me. I am also working and i give all the money to him, i never could spend a single penny for my family. When i am remaining quiet his parents and sister have been asking for his attention continuously. Now he became too busy with his work that their demands started irriating him. He has started trusting me now.
So don't expect anything from your husband for some years. He will automatically realize the truth. Anyway we are the ones who are going to be with our husbands throughout their life. Financially tough situations can also come. It came to us and at that time i gave him my full support whereas his parents and sister were complaining. These things will surely make our husbands to realize the truth.
My mil also does this partiality. We send money to her, she buys so much gifts for my sil but not for us. I don't think my husband knows about this. She and my sil both lie to him. She constantly complains about my family and sil is even now fighting with me. Whenever i think of talking to them over phone, i am really scared. But i have to do it, what to do? I started accepting it, if my husband changes that is enough. I cannot change everybody. May be i am not lucky to get good in-laws.
We need to realize the reality, accept it and act accordingly. It is true our situation is not good now, fighting with our husbands cannot help. So what next?! Atleast we are working which is a good diversion and you have a kid who will love you unconditionally. Be happy with it for now.
I am a strong believer of God. May be we did some sin in our previous birth that we got into such a family. Or may be we got the boon from God for praying to him all the time, because unless we have worries we will not think of God. If husband doesn't love us, God is there for us and HE will surely take care of us. Don't lose hope.
