I asked my doctor about this as well. He said that some offices tell you you need to fast but my OB says that it is no necessary. He said just don't eat something like 2 hours before. So, I don't think you need to fast from 8pm the night before.

My OB said not to eat anything after midnight. I wouldn't eat anything before that test just to be on the safe side.

I went early in the morning too. I ate a regular diet the day or two before, and didn't go overboard on anything sugary. My OB said not to eat after midnight (like in Gremlins) but I could have water in the morning.
