28 wks and have my GTT today … need some advice?

I am 28 weeks pregnant and I have my 1 hr Glucose tolerance test (GTT) today at 3.00 in the afternoon. I have been eatig less of starchy food but last night had a bowl of rice. I was told that Rice seems to incerease the glucose level in blood is it true. Also i am avoiding things like potatoes, sugar in tea / milk etc till the test but have to admit i did take some sugar in my tea this morning .. will all this affect my result .. i really dont want to fail this 1 hr teat n go for the 3 hr one .. pls help as i still have arnd three hrs for the test . can i do something to bring down the level of sugar in my blood .. thanks

You should just eat a regular lunch with not too many carbs. The rice you ate last night has already been used by your body and will not affect your test. If you do have gestational diabetes wouldn’t you want to know so that you can be treated. If you don’t it can harm you and the baby. If you do have gestational diabetes it wont really matter what you eat today anyway because the test is reliable, no matter what you ate today. You see, you will drink the juice they give you, and if in 1 hour your blood sugar is high you will need to do the 3 hour test. Your blood sugar is based on that drink, not what you ate earlier because it only takes 2 hours after you eat for your blood sugar to return to normal. Good luck with the test, I hope you pass!
