Just diagnosed with GD at 37.5 weeks. I know induction is on the cards, I have an appointment next week at 38w to go over my blood sugars (we will only have two days worth of blood sugar readings then) but as far as my last MW appointment, baby is measuring fine.
I already have another condition that became apparent during this pregnancy but I'm on medication for it and it wasn't going to affect the pregnancy once under control.
However - I can't deal with the anxiety this GD diagnosis has brought - I'm really scared and struggling to eat as I'm worried my blood sugars will affect the baby.
They say I will be induced latest by my due date, but can I just tell them how stressed out I am and ask to be induced next week? I can't take two more weeks of this anxiety.
Thank you
