Glucose test

Hey ladies! My glucose test is at 7:30 in the morning (Monday) and I'm super nervous. Any advice on how to pass it? A friend of mine failed hers the first time, and had to go back again; it took over three hours the second time(yikes!) she said I shouldn't even brush my teeth that morning cause it could affect the results. So any of you ladies have any advice, I really don't want to fail it haha

I ate hard boiled egg whites and dry toast before mine and abstained 24 hours before hand of any artificial sugar and sweets. It was hard, but worth it because I passed the first time!

You either have it or you don't.  Not much you can do.
obviously don't eat or drink anything with sugar past midnight.
I had to fast before my 1 hour test and I still failed it. Had to fast for the 3 hour one and passed.

I had one at 16 weeks because of a higher risk and i passed mine. The drink isn't bad if kept cold. I know you can't eat or drink anything after you start drinking the glucola.
