How does one deal with this? I appreciate this is a ME problem

Been with partner 9 years
Married
Met when my lo was 2yrs
She calls him dad, he treats her as if he's hers
So does his family
Baby in 2023 - his family at Xmas writing Xmas cards
Our baby
' to......love aunty so and so uncle so and so '
To my daughter
To....name love Bob and jo

I don't want my daughter feeling left out

I do appreciate it's me being over protective and over thinking but how does anyone else feel in similar situation?

My husband has never made me our my daughter feel like we are step or blended

It's upset/Iritated me and I know it's irrational and I know there's no malice but my biggest fear was making my eldest feel left out when baby arrived. It was us for so long and I'd hate for her to feel left out.....she's 11

I guess everyone buying baby things and no one thinking of her ( expect me and my family I feel )

So for my mil it's her ' 1st grandchild' so yes that's special but still so is my daughter....

Thoughts please ?
