Large ac circumference

I'd be grateful for some advice, I had a growth scan as was measuring large at 37 weeks and my baby's ac was measuring over the 97th percentile. I was tested for diabetes using the prick tests and this was normal. Baby was born at 8.7lb 39 plus 1 and is fine, in proportion - head and length on 97th percentile and 75th for weight. I just can't shake off the anxiety that I somehow caused the large ac reading and larger weight? I did eat too much chocolate and cake, especially in the latter stages. Have I caused this?

I would’ve only thought eating junk food would have an affect on your weight if you didn’t have gestational diabetes, I’m guilty of eating bad food as well definitely. Maybe your baby is just a bit bigger, I mean someone has to be on the 97th percentile! And the 98th,99th,100th!
