Home Pregnancy Tests

[DrivingSouth]

Do you have to administer a home pregnancy test in the morning or can it be done any time during the day??

Whats the directions on the test kit say??
I take you tried to see what a guy cumming in you felt like .... without a condom??

You can technically take it any time of day, but in the morning the hormones will be in the strongest concentration, and therefore more easily picked up by the test.

I've always done it in the morning, just to be safe.

Even so, I've gotten a couple of false negatives by testing too early in the pregnancy. Apparently, sometimes my hormones rise slowly enough to not show up on home tests for several weeks after my period was supposed to start. So now I always wait at least 3 weeks AND test in the morning if I think I might be pregnant.

The newer test out there are pretty good. I have a lot of friends trying for babies (actually, all but one are pregnant now).
Look for a "mid-stream" test. It's going to be you're "any time of day" and most sensitive test. I beleive that the "first stream" tests are just as accurate if you wait to pee for 4 hours.

I think DrivingSouth is the proud papa-to-be.

I've never had an issue with taking pregnancy tests at any time of day, but I was always 99.9% sure I was pregnant before I took the tests because pregnancy is the only time I've ever missed a period.

Morning urine is more concentrated, and therefore recommended for this reason.
