AIBU- partner isn’t happy about baby #2

For context, I’m in a lesbian relationship. We have a 3yo and just got successful with baby #2. Found out yesterday but partner has been really off since, not being excited and said “I’m happy for you”. When I challenged this and asked what’s wrong she said she’s fine, however speaking today she said she won’t be telling her best friend yet as her bff “doesn’t think she’s ready”. Am I being unreasonable being upset by her lack of excitement? I went through a lot to get this baby, and she was seemingly along for the ride, occasionally saying she was worried about jumping from 1 to 2 but we had many a deep conversation where I reassured her and she seemed fine after that. I just don’t understand :(

Update for all of you who gave me so much advice and support, she went out earlier to visit the friends baby, came back and said she was excited for this baby, just scared about how she will cope. She also revealed she’s starting some mood stabilisers her doctor prescribed last week, as her MH is not great so that explains a lot. All is well, thank you all so much 🩷🩷

That is lovely to hear, OP.
