I feel unwelcome

I feel unwelcome I was transferred to a different team in my job, and all of them know that I stutter. Some of them are hesitant to acknowledge me as part of the team. I mean, they sometimes acknowledge me as part of the team but you could really tell in their eyes and voice that they don't really want to say that I'm part of the team. And it's all because of my mild stutter. I can speak perfectly just fine. It's just that I have some difficulty saying some words. I feel like I don't belong here.
