I got a shock a couple of days ago when i went for my appt and was told that the baby may arrive any time. I am just 34 weeks. I was diagnosed with GD and polyhydramnios about 4 weeks ago, have been managing my blood sugars with diet but my fluid has continued to increase. Growth scans show baby is on the big side of average but within normal range. I have now been given steroids to help mature the baby's lungs and advice on what to do if labour starts, but i am terrified and not ready. I feel so out of control. I'm worried about the health of the baby, and what might happen.
can anyone offer words of experience or reassurance please?
