Hallow Dear,

you have history of diabetes as evident from your narration. Moreover the baby was overweight. 4 kg weight of the baby at 36+ weeks duration is definitely overweight baby. Babies of diabetic mother or diabetic babies though overweight behave like premature child. In Gestational diabetes, otherwise appearing normal baby may suddenly loose the heartbeats due to sudden death.

To avoid such accident again, please keep your diabetes well under control. even during pregnancy, have meticulous sugar control. pregnancy being an additional stress on the body, is a diabetogenic condition.

You should monitor your diabetes control by Glycated hamoglobin (HbA1C) levels in the blood.

Please report to diabetologist for diabetes control.

I hope this helps you.
