a medicine bottle or tablet bottle, or if the midwife is coming you can wee direct onto the stick

whatever you use, make sure it is sterile as it could effect the result.

But if it's a pregnancy test don't you just hold it in the, um, stream?

Why can't you wee onto the stick?

? don't you have the strip bit to wee onto as that is easy to do, or maybe a small cleaned out yoghurt pot/tupperware dish. Do you think you are pregnant KemalsStilletto??

IIRC i think the test had a little pot included. V small though so not much help

Yogurt pot? watering can??

Or if your GP surgery is near you could ask them for a sample pot?

i just use an old egg cup and keep it in the bathroom out of the way so no one uses it for eggs. It doesnt have to be sterile as long as its clean it'll be fine.

a glass, mug or small jug? (we do have a dishwasher)

I can see no mumsnetters will want to come over to geekgrrl's for a cuppa now!

In the test I have its a disptick on where u have to wee in something first then leave the test in the wee for a few seconds. was only a quid!

I'm not too sure if I'm pregnant, hence the test, but was a little too rampant during intercourse and condom spilt and neither dp or I realised til the deed was done!
