I never pee ON it. I always dip. After having a couple kids it's very hard to aim and avoid peeing all over your hand

I pee on the stick. After as many tests I've taken I've perfected my aim! Call me a sharp shooter  !
Never used the IC's, but if I did I think I would dip with those.

I could type my own response to this thread but why when luvmygirls hit the nail on the head. I had to LOL because that's exactly how I feel. Besides that I too want to make sure I don't get an invalid result because there wasn't enough urine on the stick. Besides I think it's just easier to dip.

LOL!!!
NOOO!! I cannot get my stupid pee to work with me when I am POAS. It's like my mind/body knows I am trying to get a "continuous stream" for 5 seconds I think?? and it just REFUSES to cooperate!
Yes, cup, much easier!!

Another dipper here. I dip the cheapies and for the cassettes I get from work, it has a little plastic pipette and you just drop 3 drops on it. I like that...no ifs ands or buts about how urine is getting on it that way.

Sharp shooter here!!!! I've only collected my urine in a cup when I've used $ store tests and you have to drop 3-5 drops on the testing area. That's only been like twice in my entire life.

He was our 7th loss  If you would like to see pictures of my sweet (but tiny) boy they can be viewed at www.caringbridge.org/visit/noahdarrohn they aren't the easiest pitures to look at but I am willing to share them with anyone who would like to see them <3

With the fertility monitor, it can ask you for twenty sticks in a row...which it has for the first two months that I've used it. I stumble out of bed, go into the bathroom, pull the monitor and a stick out of the cupboard, turn on monitor, open up stick and POAS and stick it in the monitor.....all with half an eye open. I'm not awake enough to go hunting around for a cup. It does cure POAS disease; after I o'ed, it still kept asking me for sticks, but I refused.
