Glucose test

[Secondtimemomma]

does anyone know if you can fail the one hour test from not eating breakfast and / or chewing gum?

I had my 1 hour glucose test and I was fasting and I didnt pass. So now I have to take the 3 hour one.

I ate 1/2 a cup of fruit and failed by 4 points:( so had to do the 3 hour! I would fast regardless just to be safe. I think if I hasn't ate it I would have passed:( but all is well and I passed my 3 hour perfectly!

There was a one hour version of the Glucose Tolerance Test? No fair. I had the full fast, sit around a hospital for 2 hours of my working day one. All clesr tho.

I have to fast for the three hour test but they said i could have eaten for my one hour. Hope i pass this one!

I'm doing the one hour test tomorrow and I have been told to fast. I wonder why that's different. I suppose different countries maybe?

I hope I don't feel too sick :(

I'm going to struggle not having breakfast as I usually feel ill until I have something in my belly.

I didn't eat the morning of my test and I passed. I did feel a little queasy after I drunk the stuff but it went away after a couple of minutes.

For the one hour test you do not need to fast and probably should eat something beforehand so you don't feel sick after drinking the sugary stuff. My midwife suggested to eat some protein for breakfast, like eggs, just don't eat something high in carbs like pancakes before the test. My appointment is first thing tomorrow morning.

No because you need to fast anyway.  Eating will contribute to higher sugar levels
