Am I crazy??

Advice

Backstory: I had a missed miscarriage in March of this year. I am currently 13 weeks pregnant and only told 3 friends.

Apparently my mother had a suspicion that I was pregnant again, she dropped by my house to see my daughter while I was on a work meeting. She gave me less than 10 minutes of a heads up. I was not ready for her to know yet so I whipped through my house and grabbed everything pregnancy related and shoved it in my room.

First she’s helping my daughter get a drink (which she already had) and made a comment about how I had no wine in the fridge, I said yeah well it’s Friday morning??

Second, back on my meeting and she comes in with an ultrasound that I apparently missed on the side of the fridge and says, “what’s this?” I was defeated and asked why she was snooping. She swears she wasn’t, said that isn’t why she came to my house. (We have lived here for three years and I can count on one hand the amount of times she has come over)

She profusely apologized, tried to blame it on one of my friends when they went out for the lunch. I’m still beyond upset that she took this from me. I feel like she could have clocked the ultrasound and kept her mouth shut until I was ready to tell.

Twice now she has told me I need to forgive her because I am being cold towards her. I have explained that this just happened and I’m allowed to take my time, her response: well it’s not like I stole your daughter’s social security number or something??

I feel like I am losing my mind and honestly just need confirmation that I have a right to be upset about this I guess
