they do induce for larger babies do to the fact that over 9 lb babies can have complications when in labor.
I was 12 and a half lbs and my mom had me vaginally.
By the way, the MOTHER has diabetes, not the baby.
Women with diabetes have larger babies, to reduce risk in labor (they want to prevent a section) they will induce.
I had an induction date with Bree but she came early.
