UPDATED...Glucose test

I am still super nervous for this dang test tomorrow morning. I have to be at the hospital at 7:30 for my one hour glucose tolerance test. I am supposed to eat eggs and yogurt before hand. I only like scrambled eggs. I usually make them with milk and put butter in the pan, does that matter? As for yogurt, does the sugar in the yogurt make a difference. I eat regular yoplait french vanilla, the container says it has 26g of sugar, that seems like a lot for a small yogurt container. Should I make sausage links to go with the eggs? Once they start the test I can't eat or drink anything. My DH is coming with me so I don't have to sit alone for an hour but I am still a mess.

Update: I survived. I was super nervous and had a stomach ache before we even left the house. They gave me an orange drink, which was already cold. It wasn't that bad, just super sweet, tasted like something but I couldn't pinpoint it. They wanted a urine sample, that was disastrous, I can't seem to pee in a cup anymore, just all over my hand. DH and I were able to go out into the atrium of the hospital, and it was about 5 degrees cooler, so that helped.  I waited an hour and they took my blood. I am now eating an english muffin with jelly.  I have an appointment on Thursday for a 4d ultrasound and my 28 week appointment.

    Not sure a out what your office would suggest, but FWIW, I wasn't given any food instructions prior to my glucose test and it was mid-afternoon. They had ice cream at work that day, and I didn't turn it down. Still passed the test. Worst case you fail the 1 hour & have to go back for a 3, right?

    I was told to eat protein and those were some examples she gave me.

    You can always make eggs and sausage anyway, there is nothing wrong with eating two meals.

    For DD, I was told not to eat anything my GD test and I failed.

    I know that is no help but I figured I'd chime in:)

    No one wants GD- I have it for the 2nd time. No matter what happens you will be okay. I whine about it all the time but really there are far worse things. In all honesty it is getting me to eat healthier than I probably would have which is better for LO. Stinks for me but good for baby. And don't let them freak you out about a "big" baby- DS was 5lbs 14 oz. good luck either way!
