I am 34+3 with my first baby. Very worried about possiblities of induction / C/S due to gestational diabetes, then being 'tied' to bed during labour (drips galore) and then baby being taken away with low blood sugar afterwards. These are all experiences I have heard of. Could someone please shed light of the reality of any / all of these.
My diabetes is being well controlled at the mo, and growth scans are good. Baby naturally big due to me and hubby being over average people, but nothing more than that.
really begining to fret all day and night now.....really wanted to enjoy these last few weeks, but fear seems to be taking over.
also anyone left with diabetes after the birth?
so many questions so little time.
