Ok, is it better to pee on the stick, or to pee in a cup then place the stick in the cup??
Why??

I just peed on the stick and all of the tests I took were accurate, I don't think it really matters which way you do it. I would just follow the instructions on the box.

Does not really matter! I would follow the directions the most important thing is to hold it in the urine for as long as the test instructs and to lay flat until the time period is up. I would give the test an extra 3-5 minutes before you expose of the test. I took one at the Dr.'s office and they told me it was negative but I knew it was wrong because I had already taken two that came back positive and I asked to see it as she brought it back in the room with a smile on her face and an apology and she said it was positive! Good Luck! Let me know what the result is.

You can do the test either way. I would suggest taking the test in the morning though. When I took my first pregnancy test it came out negative. It was the evening. Not the next morning but the morning after that I took another one and it was positive. I talked to my doctor about this and he said that your HCG hormone is more concentrated in the morning and so a test is more likely to come out positive in very early pregnancy first thing in the morning. Good Luck to you and I hope it works out!
May I recommend a site to you? www.babycenter.com. This site is for pregnant women, women that are trying to get pregnant etc. It will send you a weekly newsletter about what to expect this week in pregnancy, what your baby is doing, you can even sign up for the online chat and talk to other women that are the same gestation as you are. I used this site during my 3 pregnancies. It was really nice to get to women and make friends with women this way.

it doesnt matter. either way,the stick soaks up the urine. i would just say that if you dont have to pee very badly at all, do it in the cup because the stream of urine might not last long enough to fully saturate the stick. good luck!!

No dif. But take it in the morning instead, when your hormone levels are higher.

Either way is fine! If you feel that you can't do it correctly the one way do it the other!
