1 hour glucose test

[tcnov5]

OK , so this Thursday I take the 1 hour glucose test, and I'm extremely nervous about it. This one I don't have to fast , I'm allowed to eat a small non sugary breakfast. Any advice would be appreciated like what flavored drink that I should ask for the test, what's best to eat before the test, and just how to pass it so I don't have to take the 3 hour one lol. Anything to calm my fears.

Thank you all for putting my mind at ease. I'm OK it's just my first time doing this , and don't know what to expect. I've read some horror stories about it which i know i shouldn't of read lol

I scheduled my test for right after I dropped my kids off to school, so I only had some water and a glass of white grapefruit juice before my test. I chose the orange flavored one.

I had mine done 2 weeks ago. If u get to eat something its a whole lot better the drink actually didnt taste bad at all. Mine was the orange one. Its better if its cold tho

I had the test just this past Friday with a orange flavored drink and it doesn't even take that bad. As for what to eat, maybe some toast with an egg but this test is pretty important and there is no way to trick the results of the test. If you don't have high sugar levels that's great but if you do taking these tests could determine whether your baby could have diabetes, etc. after birth so I would take it serious.

I have had the orange and fruit punch one neither were bad. Don't stress the test itself isn't anything to stress over.

Eggs with veggies and maybe sausage or bacon would be a good breakfast. Honestly the drink doesn't taste that bad. I've only had the orange flavor.

I don't think there is anything special you can do to make sure you pass it. It all depends on your body.
