Re: Glucose test
I haven't had this yet, but you should listen to whatever your doctor tells you to do. Hope it goes well.

Re: Glucose test
do whatever your dr says. I didnt have to for the 1 hr but the night before I ate a chicken sandwhich and fries from wendys and I failed the 1 hr.
They told me after the fact that I should have watched the carbs the night before. So I would suggest just staying away from carbs.

Re: Glucose test
My doctor said that I don't have to, but he told me that the place I got it done will tell me it needs to be fasting. He said according to the journals you do not need to be fasting. I didn't fast and I was fine.

Re: Glucose test
nope! with DD and now this pregnancy I was told NOT to fast. this time around I had a 12pm appt, ate a bagel for breakfast and passed with "flying colors". they want to see your normal activity etc. Definitely listen to whichever your Dr. tells you to do!
