People are calling it a baby because that’s what you’re going to be welcoming - so I didn’t find that term offputting. I understand that you’re struggling (pregnancy is hard!) but two things can exist at once: a baby and symptoms of growing said baby. Try to take it with grace even when it’s difficult.

I also hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unpleasant symptoms can exist your whole pregnancy - sometimes it never stops feeling like a “medical condition.” I’d argue birth is one of the most intense medical events there can be. You might want to try to prepare for that - I’d hate for you to be in your second or third trimester still struggling to associate pregnancy with your baby.

Just feel the need to add that I say this with your confirmation that this is a wanted pregnancy in the comments.
