The test checks your fasting blood glucose as well as how your body deals with the glucose (whether it can remove the glucose from your blood efficiently). You’ll need to fast (both food and water) from midnight in order to get an accurate assessment of whether you have diabetes. Even if you’ve taken sweet stuff previously, it doesn’t mean you’ll get a bad result:) but having a healthy, well balanced diet is definitely good for your pregnancy. Try to drink plain water as much as possible, and go for naturally sweet things like fruits rather than sweet snacks.
