    DD1 been 4.1kg means I am high risk.

    Yes you're absolutely within your rights. Their terms for you sound totally ridiculous! I've never had the glucose tests and both times my midwives (1 independent midwife, 1 hospital midwife) were more than happy with that and agreed with my decision. I can't believe all the OB visits they want. DD was 3.9kg, nobody ever said a thing. I don't really think she was big at all tbh. Don't be afraid to speak up if you're not happy with the care, you're not supposed to feel like you're being managed like this, especially with your uncomplicated history.

    You absolutely have the right!! DS was 4.3 kg and no mention has been made about me being more at risk next time.
