Can I have coffee before my pregnancy glucose test?

Just black coffee? It's going to be the one hour test and I was told I could eat a small protein breakfast but I really want a small cup of coffee too! I only have one cup a day my whole pregnancy if I have any at all and my doctor says it's OK but I'm not sure if I can before my glucose test. Thanks!
 
I wondered the same thing...my doctor said I could but that it might mess with the 1 hour test (even if it is just black b/c they don't want you to have anything but water). Then I would have to come back and do the 3 hour test...which would obviously mean even longer without my morning coffee. I just scheduled my appointment as early as I could...and enjoyed my coffee at about 9:30. Good Luck!
