I think every woman should be given the chance to birth their babies naturally before intervention is used. Unless there is a medical reason for the health of the baby and Mum I think it is a pathetic excuse to induce babies because they appear large (which often they are not). There is no way of knowing until the time comes if a woman can birth a 'large' baby or not.

I think in GD cases there is enough risk to the baby being born with high blood sugar levels as it is without having them born before they are ready, which can bring about it's own set of complications.
