Advice needed 😞

Hi mummies, I’m in week 28 and just went for my prenatal visit. Gynae said that my baby is too big at 1.387kg. Will there be any issue if I want to give birth naturally and any ways to stop the weight from gaining so fast 😞

what was your baby weight at week 20-22? If it was normal, what changed? Did your diet change? Anyway, I've heard that many mothers successfully deliver larger than normal babies. At most it will be harder on you and take more energy and time and more pain for you, unless you're extremely petite and have a very very small pelvis and the baby is just too huge to go through (which isnt an issue because you can control from now). Sometimes your doc will advice you for c section directly just in case, not because you can't do natural birth. But because if you happen to take too long for vaginal birth, and your baby is in distress or something, you'll need an emergency c section anyway which will cost a lot more than if you just do planned c section. But if you want to try vaginal birth regardless, you need to let your doctor know. They will likely advice you accordingly.
