I’ve known my boyfriend for years — we were coworkers who always got along. At the time, we were both in relationships, so I never thought of him in that way, but I always thought he was kind and handsome.

Fast forward: we were both single, started talking, and began dating immediately. Things moved fast — we’ve been officially together for over 8 months, I’m pregnant, and we live together. He’s had relationships before me, including one with “MK,” who he dated for just over 2 years and broke up with in mid‑2022.

Here’s where my issue comes in: his immediate family still wishes her happy birthday, likes all her posts, and even shares them. I know I can be insecure, but this feels disrespectful, especially since I’m carrying his child.

How can I bring this up in a way that’s productive and not just emotional?

TL;DR: Been with my boyfriend 8 months, pregnant, and living together. His family still publicly interacts with his ex of 2 years. It makes me feel disrespected — how do I address it without it turning into a fight?
