Original Title: my settings says my icloud back up will be deleted because it thinks i have a new phone

Read here Get temporary iCloud storage when you buy a new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

I think that I would check

https://account.apple.com/account/manage/section/devices

to see if any new devices are using the account. Just in case…

If you have Settings>Apple ID>iCloud Backup turned on, then backups continue getting made, and they are each deleted after 30 days.
