Partners & In-Laws

I am in my second trimester. My partner and I have been having alot of problems recently in regards to his parents getting involved. He and his mother has taken the time to draft out names for the baby without even asking me and they are even talking about where our child will be schooling without informing me. When i have voiced out my concern to him he gets defensive and with my pregnancy hormones I get so annoyed at him. Has any been through this?

Before pregnancy I reiterate I'm the mother and I have my way nurture my child and don't need any involvement from others. Understanding from partner is important, u need to make your partner understand & agree with u my child my way

I have tried. But he always geta defensive and his mother always steps in to his defense. He says why am I too proud to accept help is it because I will feel the baby wont be 100% mine. Which is a dumb thing to say.
