She explained: "I know I'm not the only mom [sic] who woke up Christmas morning with not a single present under the tree for them as you watched your kids and husband unwrap the presents you spent all month stressing over."
Since sharing, Mary's video has raked in over 9,500 responses from TikTok users - while several of whom pleaded for an explanation.
In a follow-up video, the mum explained: "I am so happy to see all of the positive and uplifting comments that a lot of you guys left on my last video.
"It really sucks that for most of us that it's so normal but we also know that as a mum our kids come first," Mary added.
She went on: "It was such a big deal to me that my husband didn't get me anything for Christmas this year.
"We've been married for seven years and been together for almost ten and my husband has never really got me anything for any occasion.
"Of course, I've mentioned it to him that it bugs me but after having kids I try to just focus on my kids and make it about them."
Meanwhile, a TikTok user took to the comments and wrote: "Thank you for this post. I felt less alone in the world."
A second sympathised: "Worst feeling in the world. Feeling unseen, unimportant, and undervalued."

"Absolutely hit nail on the head. I'm exhausted, while everyone waits for me to provide CHRISTMAS! I cried this morning," another added.
A different user wrote: "I feel this today. So I went online and ordered a new LV purse. I'll explain this to him when it arrives."
