glucose test

So I have my glucose test in the morning. I'm sure I was told I'm not allowed to eat or drink anything from now until the test in the morning, does anyone know if this includes water? Thanks

Thanks guys. I'm 26 weeks now. They take your blood then make  you drink a glucose drink then test you an hour later to see how the glucose leaves your system to check for gestational diabetes. I don't really know much about it lol

You can drink and eat now but they only want you to drink water the night before and they usually do it around 28 weeks so yours should be coming up Danielle_1994

How far gone are you? I'm 26+1 & I haven't had my glucose test or even been informed about it? I'm not sure what it is or how they do? Sorry to jump on your post x
