My scan showed baby is measuring on the bigger side for the weeks. Im a little worried about delivery now. What actually causes this? anyone whose baby was big, how did it go?
I panicked so much when my ultrasound showed a big baby! But my doctor said it was just genetics because my husband is tall and broad. It's totally normal sometimes, so don't worry.
Well, having twins meant smaller babies, but my sister had a 4kg baby! Her doctor said it was just because she delivered past her due date and had no diabetes. It's usually fine, just trust your doc.
Sometimes eating too much ghee or sweets can also increase baby weight, but mostly it is genetic or gestational diabetes. Try to eat a balanced diet with lots of green veggies and consult your doctor.
Actually, gestational diabetes is a major reason for big babies, yaar. My doctor checked my sugar levels immediately when the baby's weight seemed high. So better to get your GTT test done.
