I'm 32 weeks and 3 days.
I have gestatinal diabeties and have been on insulin since my last scan 3 weeks ago.
At my scan 3 weeks ago i was measuring on the 95th percentile line, Today i am measuring below the 95th percentile line at about the 70th percentile.
My diabetic team said this is good the growth has slowed down and the insulin is doing its job however when the doctor came in I asked is this was insulin related and not something else, he never commented and said the scan was fine and rushed me out the appointment i felt,
does anyone know anything about the percentiles and what happens if the growth does slow down? not really clued up on it all and feeling a bit worried

I dont know because I've not been in that situation but I have heard of babies being born at 13lbs because of g.d and I guess your diabetic team know what they're talking about. Call your mw for a breakdown of what you've been told I'm sure she can explain it

i've heard of that too, scary! i think i'm a bit anxious because her growth was always a bit faster and now its slowing down, i'm probably just being over anxious, thank you i will call my midwife they do always reassure me x
