I was supposed to get induced. I would have been going on 39 weeks. From what I was told, the Dr's like to induce women with GD between 38-39 weeks. I ended up having a c-section at 38+4. :)

I have to have nst twice a week.  Not sure why.  I have been keeping my sugar in check. I seriously think the conjure up reasons to get people back in the clinic to charge more money.
