[QUOTE="Rose22, post: 2110595, member: 509613"] That was same as me in my first pregnancy, was picked up in the first blood tests the midwife did, I wasn’t expecting a call to say I had gestational diabetes! But it sounds like it is going really well, as you are controlling diet alone. Try and go with the flow, pregnancies are never a predicted route, enjoy this special time! I think the measurement being few days over isn’t anything to be concerned about. Nearer the end of the pregnancy you should have growth scans more often and that should give an idea of babies size, but as others have mentioned they are a guide, and tend to over estimate. You have a choice in delivery and care during pregnancy so go by what you feel is best for you and baby. (Without letting the diabetes part scare or interfere too much) Xxx [/QUOTE]
