Pregnant after IF

Q about 1 hr glucose test

Do I need to fast for this? My paperwork does not say and I was hoping to go in to the lab early tomorrow morning to do it.

TIA!

  • They just told me no caffeine and eat like normal before going in.

  • I drink my stuff at home and was just told not to eat after I drink it.  Just water.
  • Thanks! :)

  • For one hour you don't have to fast, the 3 hour you do fast.  Just don't eat anything after you drink the stuff for the one hour.

  • I was told to fast and drink the drink one hour before my appointment.  I didn't have to fast the night before or morning of. 
  • My Dr. told me I could eat as I normally do, just making sure not to overload on sugar beforehand.

  • My Peri told me not to drink 2 gallons of orange juice before going in, but otherwise, eat as normal.

    I still fasted, though.  ;)

  • I was not told to fast and to eat like normal. I drink the drink at the ob office and get the blood drawn an hour later.

  • I was told nothing to eat for 2 hours before the test and if I needed to, I could have a little water within 2 hours before the test.

  • Obviously, we all get very different instructions, so go by whatever your paperwork says (or don't worry if it doesn't say).  I had a different OB in my last pregnancy and had completely different instructions...
