All Parent's fear for their children, it's natural.
Your Mum's comments were based on her fears, wanting you to have a great start in life, that's all... And, her little way of warning, making you think..
It's good that at least you have taken the first step, telling her that you have had sex, means you can share conversations with her, or else you wouldn't have been able to do so.
You are an adult, and your decision and congratulations...
Maybe give her a week and sit her down and tell her firstly that you love the way she and you can be open in conversations and that you are grateful for that.
Well, I agreed with your comment to last week Mum in retrospect but I have just found out that I am pregnant, you are going to be a Grandma and I know, the best.....
Sometimes, adding in words such as "Grandma" softens it a bit. As well as letting her know you hope she will be there in understanding.
Remember though, she had you, and at some point you were always going to grow up and be your own self, and you are. Thank her for that and tell her you would love her support and guidence as she has with you, for her grandchild.
Sure, you will be fine.
