I don't know girls. I think yesterday was a big SPOOF!!! But before I post pictures.. yes I'm going to make you wait, I have a question that I need some answers to first. This morning I POAS, directly onto a FRER, there was the required 5-7 second stream and I watch and wait....... 1 minute, 2 minute.... Oh wait, I do see something, very very faint if I twist it this way, but not enough to impress me. Umph... fine I'm not pregnant. No bid deal. But considering yesterday I didn't use FMU, I used 2nd FMU, off to the bathroom I go (about an hour later). I didn't POAS though, I P'd in a cup! With the $ store tests, as I'm sure some of you know, you need to eye drop your sample. So I do the $ store test and I get the same result as yesterday, slight +HPT. Now the brain is saying "***?!?!" I still have one FRER left and figure, "Let's do it!!" So I put the FRER in the cup and wouldn't you know it, I get a 2nd line, a little darker than yesterdays (I think I POAS, but I could be wrong since I took so many tests yesterday). So now I'm wondering, here's my question finally, Is there a difference from directly POAS or when you submerge the test in a sample?

Only if the test doesn't absorb enough in the mid stream. I use the cup a lot because I'm afraid I'm going to miss.
And OMG!!! Congrats!!! I know those are BFP's!!!!!!!

I ALWAYS use FRERs and evety single time I've ever tested I always pee i na cup. I use Spongebob Dixie cups (lol). But it is always very accurate (never a false neg or false pos yet) plus you don't have to worry about not enough urine getting o nthe absorbent tip or missing your aim, etc. That's just my two cents, though. I still think you are pregnant!

I am a PIAC-er too...and the only thing you have to watch is that some tests (CBE digi, for example) will have you submerge it longer than if you pee on it. Because i've recently become *quite* the expert on this subject  if it's a line FRER it's same time (5 second, 3 mins for results) but if you're using CBE then you do 30 secs (instead of 5 secs).
But give up on convincing us you're not pregnant...when is your EDD?? are you joining me in the Dec DDC or did you sneak into Nov DDC???

Congrats!!!! I think that peeing in a cup is just as effective as on a stick.
