So paranoid about having a huge baby

So paranoid about having a huge baby

This is my 2nd time with GD. My son was 6 lb 5 oz, but born at 34 weeks so he would have been huge. Last time my numbers were always really high and I was on 2 types of insulin before every meal and at night. My numbers have been good so far, with the exception of fasting. I just got the call today that the doctor wants to start me on insulin at night only to try and control the fasting. Since my other numbers are way better this time, do you think there's less of a chance my baby will be really big, or does it not really make a difference? I've lost 4 pounds since being diagnosed and I try to eat really healthy anyway so I just want to do anything I can to have a normal sized baby.

I'm a bit worried of this as well. I am having an at home unassisted water birth. I did watch a women birth an 11lb baby all natural so that made me feel better.

Have they done a growth scan? On my first appt with the specialist I was referred to because of GD she perform one. And then again 2 weeks later on the 2nd appt. to see how much the baby was growing.

Ok so not using actual numbers.. But everyone knows I'm over weight since having my girls. It's no secret. BUT i was talking with my hubby last night and idk how we got to this but he said something like (not using actual numbers) no one should weigh 800lbs, they should take care of themselves. And i said so what if someone weighs 800lbs? He said no one should weigh that, they should be healthier. I said well i almost weigh 800! I'm in the 790s. And I'm healthy. I may be overweight but i don't have any diseases, no high cholesterol, no high blood pressure, i don't have a bad heart, lungs, or anything else. So I'm healthy I'm just over weight. So then we argued about him having an issue with my weight.. Am i wrong in this? Because it really hurt my feelings.. I've tried sooo many different things to lose weight but having hypothyroidism makes you gain/hard to lose. And my medications for depression and anxiety cause you to gain also.. So it's very hard to lose weight.. But i didn't even know he had an issue with my weight until last night..

So idky I thought we'd have a 16 Week scan 🤦🏽 ♀ like I was so siked because it's spring break week next week and it would have been my daughter's first time seeing baby! Nope, not until 20 weeks 🙄 lol So babe and I decided to go ahead and schedule a 3d/4d ultrasound on Saturday! I'm so excited. 1, because since I know it's a boy I kind of want to see a penis for confirmation 😂 and 2nd, because my daughter will actually realize that a baby is really in my tummy 😂😂 (the ultrasound will do it for her, she's been asking to go! 🥰)
