I have GD and so far am controlling it with diet only. I also just had my 31w scan done and the baby is measuring about 2.1kg and about 2 weeks ahead which doesn't bother me as I know the US are 100% accurate. Every GD appointment I mention that I am having a VBAC this time and they all go, 'Oh you have GD so I am fairly sure you will have another c-section!' WTF!

So my question is do I really need to have a c-section just because there is a chance I will have a big baby because of GD? I am pretty keen on trying for the VBAC and don't like any one telling me what I have to do. If there are serious medical reasons for another c-section I will go that way but I will not be having a planned one at this stage.
