Vick - the policy is 38 weeks if insulin controlled, no later than due date with diet-controlled. They say it's not just the size of the baby (plenty of big babies without GD) but the extra sugar can make the placenta degrade quicker than usual so not a good idea to go overdue. I think it's a cautious policy but they don't like it when you argue. I'll be happy if they let me go beyond 39 weeks but hoping I might be able to go naturally, we'll see. What will they do to prepare your LO for induction at 35 weeks?
Nic and Kimmy. Late stages don't sound fun.
Had a lovely weekend away, only wish it wasn't Monday tomorrow!
