Glucose test Tuesday???

So I have my glucose test on Tuesday in the morning and suppose to fast for 2 hours only. Should I get up and eat before that two hours or should I just not eat? I'm afraid I'm gonna fail it. My mom and sister had them there second pregnancy and this is my second and he is already weighing more than what all the apps say. Moves constantly but I also get tingling in my toes and fingers sometimes along with getting dizzy, nauseous, and my heart feeling like its gonna jump out my chest. Should I be worried?

Just stay away from sugary foods right before. That's means fruit too. Water is perfectly fine to drink.

You're only supposed to fast 2 hours? My treat is Tuesday and the doctor said no food or water after midnight and my test isn't until 10 am. Supposedly even a sip of water to keep from being parched can effect it. I don't know how much i believe that but i am planning on staying up as late as i can to snack and have my last drink.
