ADVICE NEEDED ABOUT MORNING WEE FOR PREGNANCY TEST !!

33 replies

sweetbean · 18/09/2007 08:51

I know that it is best to test with the first wee of the day and that ideally you should leave at lest 6hrs between wee's if you want to get enough hormones in it but i wake up at 3ish desperate for a wee and then again at 6ish so (ramble ramble ramble) my question is, is it ok to collect a wee sample at 3am and then leave it and test it when i wake up ?????

I know that it sounds stupid to ask but do you think i would be ok or do the hormones "go off" or something

My cycle is usually 28/29 days long and i was due on on 14th so am late and want to test tommorrow am !!

Thanks for any advice !!

Tests are pretty sensitive these days, I don't think you need to wait for morning wee. The morning wee tends to have more concentrated hormones, but with modern tests, I don't think you need to worry about that ...

fishie · 18/09/2007 08:54

why not go and test now?

belgo · 18/09/2007 08:55

can you not just test at 3am?

you should get an accurate result by now. Good luck

sweetbean · 18/09/2007 08:56

go and test today!

belgo · 18/09/2007 09:22

and of course let us know the result

fishie · 18/09/2007 09:35

when does he get home? test this evening, it really should be fine, i got a positive at 6pm.

AnnainNZ · 18/09/2007 09:44

Agree you should be able to test in evening and get result - I tested 5pm the day my period was due and got a strong line within about 20 seconds! Tests v sensitive these days.

goingfor3 · 18/09/2007 10:15

As your af is over due you can test at anytime of the day. Yesterday, cd23 I tested at 10.30 in the morning and got a bfp and it was not my first wee.

goingfor3 · 18/09/2007 10:16

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nh101 · 18/09/2007 10:19

There should be instructions on the test about how to store urine. I am sure you can keep it for up to 8 hours in a fridge before testing.

But if you wee at 3am and then use 6am wee you will still probably get a positive if your period is already late.

Good luck! Hope to see you on the "Due in June thread"!

sweetbean · 18/09/2007 13:20

Thanks for all the posts i might be brave enough to test to night !!!?

I've got cheep tests from eday so im not sure how good they are ??????

i don't know why im being like this my dd is 2.5 and i thought i would be so much more relaxed this time round but so far im a complete reck!!!

nh101 · 18/09/2007 16:06

Cheapo tests are just as sensitive. I think 25 hcg is the most sensitive, some are 50 though I think - the box will tell you! Good luck

belgo · 19/09/2007 07:49

any result?

sweetbean · 19/09/2007 09:19

BFP

Alto it was fainter than i would have liked,and when i had my MC it was also faint alto it has to be said it was quite a bit fainter an this one !!

Dose anyone know if it makes any diffrence if there faint or not at this point as i really wanted a very strong line to reasure me !!!!

CaptainCaveman · 19/09/2007 09:21

My faint line is kicking me right now!!

Congratulations!! If you test again in a few days, the line will probably be stronger.

Congratulations! Wishing you all the best with your pregnancy

Sweetbean - congrats! That's great news. How many days into your cycle are you? If you are not yet past four weeks that may be why you do not have a strong line.

I had a very strong line and still MC'd so I don't think it matters!

nh101 · 19/09/2007 10:45

{ I will report back on Monday to tell you if I got a bfp too!)
