Thank you for your advice ladies, but just to make things clearer to understand in my situation as to the Inducement: I have Gestational Diabetes and I am on Insulin 4 injections daily to control this as diet alone wasn't working. So it's a medical decision. I was told at my appointment prior to yesterdays that Diabetes controlled with Insulin is taken very seriously. Hence the Inducement. It's not one I am getting by choice.

Therefore when the OB was concerned at the size of my belly when she measured it yesterday, I became concerned also as I know that GD baby's have a higher risk of becoming much bigger in the last 4 weeks or more. It's not always the case. I know of many cases where the baby has been born very small to GD mum's. I am very researched on pretty much everything that I can be. I knew an inducement was on the cards months before I was told as I research everything and anything and read as much information so that I am aware of all risks/outcomes etc, but as the inducement isn't by choice, but is being put upon me, I have to go with what I am given.

When I write about the eating side of things, I worry as far as my sugar levels as I don't want any readings over (which I always get) because I am scared that she will put on the extra weight and the longer I struggle with it the more she will put on. Every first time mother worries, especially when they have the extra's that some have to contend with. Being induced puts me at slightly higher risk of C.section and the bigger she gets, the more chance of it too.
