Hi, with my first son and GD, I wasn't offered an induction and I don't think I had extra scans either but this was 13 years ago. I have gestational diabetes this time and my midwife said my hospital like to induce at 38 weeks, which tbh I'd sort of prefer as I'd rather have baby out before the Autumn with the covid etc. So the sooner the better. But I haven't spoken to the consultant yet... I also have a low placenta so I guess it could be a planned c section if it hasn't moved up.
I wondered how many people have been induced due to GD, and at how many weeks? Or if you needed a c section due to the placenta being too low, when this is done?
I'm at Basingstoke Hospital, thanks
