Big baby

Does it actually just not matter if a baby is measuring big if I'm going to have a c section? I'm 32 weeks, measuring 37cm which is a huge jump from last measurements but my midwife didn't bat an eyelid and sent my on my way. My last baby was almost 11lbs. I've already been tested for GD and don't have it. I have my consultant in 3 weeks where I'm supposed to get the date for my section. Should I just wait and see what she says? I kind of want to phone my midwife and speak to her about it as I really struggled physically being so big and sore last time and the thought of doing it again is making me feel really down but she just didn't seem fussed about it so I feel silly. I know things are pretty crazy for everyone with everything that's going on at the minute so my problem feels very insignificant but I can't stop myself from getting upset about it

They say as long as there following the curve there happy with that and as long as he doesn't drop or jump suddenly for example from 50th to 97th then it's fine my baby has been following just above 97th but last week dropped to 95th I was sent for scan he is actually on 90th but his belly is bug and on the 97th i go back in 3 weeks just to check his belly hasn't jumped up in measurements and still following the corve docs says it's very normal x
