I'm not sure if they'll be able to answer your question or if you should ask your OB, but I wish I had asked if there are any hard and fast policies re: induction with GD patients.
I've heard different stories from different girls here and it seems like each hospital has their own procedure for how far along they will let a pregnancy go with GD before inducing (assuming the baby stays at a good size), and I'm sure it also depends on whether a case is diet controlled, or requires more medication.
Like I said, I dunno if your nutritionist will be able to answer, but I wish I had asked them before just to give myself a better idea of what my near future may look like. Now I suppose I'll just wait until my next appt. GL!
