"Record already in use" when trying to add A record to custom Firebase site

I'm currently connecting a custom site to Firebase hosting.

Firebase has given me the following error:

We expected these A records
    Host: my.app
    Values:
        151.xxx.1.xxx
        151.xxx.85.xxx
We found these A records
    Host: my.app
    Values:
        151.xxx.1.xxx

Add these A records to your domain by visiting your DNS provider or registrar. 

Your site will show a security certificate warning for a few hours, until the certificate has been provisioned.

Record type Host    Value
A
my.app 
151.xxx.1.xxx
A
my.app 
151.xxx.85.xxx

I've already added the first A record in my Google Domains backend (151.xxx.1.xxx), but when I try to add the second (151.xxx.85.xxx) I get this error: Record already in use.

I'm getting this error because the host value is the exact same (@ or my.app).

How can I fix this?
