Glucose Test

I have mind at lunch time today.  Am I supposed to fast?  My OB didn't say anything about it, so I wasn't sure.

Not for the 1 hour.  Like  Victoria said, if for some reason your 1 hr comes back high, you will have to fast and go back for the 3 hour.  If that happens, try not to worry, I have failed the 1 hr hour in all of my last 4 pregnancies, but my 3 hrs always came out ok.

No, you don't need to fast for the 1 hour test, though if for some reason you have to go back for the 3 hour, then you would need to fast.
