Me (31 f married), my parents r acting weird after me getting pregnant

I have been in a relationship for more than 7 years and married for more than 3 years. As I was a single child my parents were always a bit overprotective about me. But after I got pregnant recently they started acting very weird. First of they told this is the only child I need (that is if I am adamant in having a child), and I explained politely its not their business. But they are acting weird day by day.
I am having several health issues and struggling throughout pregnancy, but they are not at all supportive, simplifying my issues and they do not even ask about the health of the baby when we talk. Its like they are trying to avoid the baby from the talk.
When I talk about the baby they reply weirdly and act as if they are a jealous couple, implying that their baby was superior or something. I tell them I am that baby they are talking about, and how can my baby be any inferior to theirs.
It is very difficult to explain their behavior, every time they shuts me down, and I get depressed after talking to them every time. Even if I am happy they will find some way to kill that happiness. They have repeatedly told me many times that my baby will not be any good and I better expect the worse. I dont know what that means and how to react to it.
My husband is very loving and supporting, he had started considering my parents as bullies nowadays. If he tries to tell them to behave a little better and show me a little care they yell at him and gets very angry. As I am the only child I feel obligated to check upon them and care about them. But I cannot take this torture they are giving me anymore. What do I do?

I swear, people are dumb. If...and that's a big IF....this is an accurate depiction of what's going on, it's a pretty easy fix. IF your parent are acting how you say they are, your husband tells them to frick the hell off. It's that simple.

I would cut 75% of communication off. They obviously aren't gappy for you and won't be happy when the baby gets here. It's unhealthy for you and the baby. Cut them off and see if they change their tone. You're a full grown adult, they should treat you like one.

They seem to forget that not all girls can get pregnant irrespective of any supplement.
My dear...........
