Fasting blood test?

Hi ladies!

I'm going for my 10 week screening blood tests tomorrow, and don't know if I have to fast or not? It's not ticked on the form, and frankly I don't think I could fast that long as I have to get DD off to kinder first! Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated Xo

From memory no you don't have to fast. The only one I had to fast for was the 2 hour gestational diabetes one.
