Sugar in Urine at 37 weeks

At my 37 week appt they found some sugar in my urine. Anything to
worry about? I did have some (4oz) orange juice and a bowl a cereal
about 3 hours prior to the appt. I get the impression it's not a big
deal, but should I start to try cutting out more sugar/carbs until
after I give birth? btw, I tested neg for gd at my 5 mo appt and
have no history of it.

It's not a big deal and you shouldn't worry about it. Eat whatever gets you
through the rest of the preg.

The last 2 times I have done the "pee test" it has shown traces of sugar.
My midwife asked me what I had eaten that morning (jellybeans once and hot
cross buns the other). She said that catered for the sugar and it was fine
and normal :-)
