Your scan shows a healthy pregnancy overall. Nothing to be worried. Edd in later scans can differ from your precalculated dates by 7 days or even a little more, so don't worry. As for the diabetes, its best to get your delivery done by 12th August, because there is some risk to the baby (of sudden unexplained demise) in diabetic mothers if one tries to pull through the pregnancy to the very end. So, no issues with your doctor's advice; don't be worried.
Next Steps
Follow your doctor's advice; connect if further advice is needed.
