Hello
I am 32 weeks pregnant, and was recently diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes.
Been managing my blood sugars through diet and Metformin pretty well, but at my growth scan today I was told that my baby's estimated weight is currently 5lb 14 oz, which is worrying me alot.
The head and femur measurements were all within the normal range, but the abdomen was above the 95th percentile.
The midwife didn't seem concerned particularly, and they said I didn't need another scan between now and 37 weeks, but I cannot help but worry that she is going to be a monster baby and have problems with the birth.
Can anyone help put my mind at ease that she is going to be ok?
