Diabetic mummies what size was your little one?

[Solero]

I have posted earlier about the accuracy of growth scans but I have just seen the consultant today after my growth scan on Friday and she is estimating I could have am 11lb-er if left to go full term ( I am 32+2) but its looking likely for a section at 38. However I thought my diabetes control had been quite good this time but obviously a little extra sugar has got thru. DD1 was 6lb12 when I delivered at 36+1 so she could have been a lot bigger if I hadn't had to deliver early due to pre eclampsia. So i guess what I am asking ( cos am stressing my self out a little looking at centiles and all sorts of other info) what are other diabetic mums experiences in terms of glucose control and baby weight at birth?

Hi my ds was 7lb 14.5oz at 38 weeks control wasnt great at conception(suprise baby) but was good from start of trimester i dont remember what the growth scans said tho. Dd who is currently keeping me awake was 8lbs 6.5oz and was supposedly going to be big as was told she was 8lbs 1oz at 34 weeksish and my hba1c was 7.5 at 6 weeks but ws in the 5's for most of pregnancy. How are your bg going? I felt my hba1c was not a true reflection of the bg rollercoaster.

DD1 was 7lb 4, delivered two weeks overdue but I wasn't diabetic then. Diagnosed with gestational diabetes with ds1. He arrived 8 days late weighing 8.lb 13. Tbh, towards the end diet was crap due to family illness and subsequent bereavement.
