[quote=Anonymous]I was diabetic before being pregnant and was immediately put on insulin by my endocrinologist (I didn't take insulin before pregnancy). I was told that the recommended diabetic protocol was having frequent monitoring ultrasounds, and that they wanted the baby delivered before 39 weeks, and preferred it to be a scheduled c-section. I was scheduled for a c-section right at 37 weeks and went into labor a few days before. My baby was just under 7 pounds at that point, and had low blood sugar issues but we ended up supplementing with formula. I'm flabbergasted that your doctor didn't figure out his/her discomfort with this until now. In terms of shady grove, I guess if you're going to be scheduled early as a c-section, it's manageable. But what a crappy situation all around!!! [/quote]
