Glucose test instructions?

Question

I take the test on Wednesday but I haven't gotten any instructions from the dr's office about what to do. What's the latest I can eat-- the night before? My appt is at 8:30 am.

Answer

Mine is tomorrow, my midwife said I can still eat but to avoid sugar that day, including fruit and juice.

Answer

Mine was fasting for the one hr.
Nothing after 12 the night before.
They get a true eating when it's a fasting lab and you've had nothing,although it looks like a lot did eat so you'll just have to check.

Answer

It's so weird to me that we have all been given different directions. I'm personally glad I was allowed to eat at least one hour before because the drink is so sweet and would have probably made me feel sick if I had to do it on an empty stomach.

Answer

Thanks all. I'll probably just skip breakfast though I still feel a little first trimester style nausea when I do that. :)

Answer

I would call your doctors office and ask. We moved and my first doctor wanted me to fast for 10-12 hours, my new doctor didn't have me fast for it. So every place is different.

Answer

My test is Wednesday as well. The doctor said not to have anything for 2 hours before the test

Answer

Is it the one hour test? If so, you shouldn't have to fast or restrict anything.

Answer

I was told to fast at least 6 hours prior to taking to test! & of course I ate something & the results came back messed up so I had to do it all over again the following week. That was for the one hour test.. I'm not sure about the 3 hour test.

Answer

The instructions that was given to me was I couldn't eat or drink anything 8 hours before.

Answer

For the one hour it's a good idea to fast an hour before.
