How do you check your pregnancy tests?!

Just a quick question to satisfy my curiosity Grin
How do you all check your pregnancy tests?!
Do you POAS and then ignore it for 3 minutes then go back to it?
Or do you watch it the whole time to see if the line appears?

I know I know, too much time on my hands....

@NoWordForFluffy you've answered my next question there too!
Do you all dip it into a receptacle you've previously wee'd in?
Or hold it in your flow for a few seconds?

Dunking is better for avoiding a flooded test!

@NoWordForFluffy thanks! I'll keep a hairspray can lid or something for that purpose Grin

Dunking is better to avoid the dreaded wee hand! I'm not in control of my flow Grin
I wee in a old GÜ cheesecake ramekin. Must remember to bin that now!

Wee hand 😂

Yes definitely bin it, before you have friends round for dinner and are making individual desserts Grin

My receptacle of choice is a former pickled onion jar. It has "PEE JAR" written on the label in marker pen Grin

😂 @emwithme and where is your pickled onion jar kept? Hidden in the bathroom? Kitchen cupboard?!

It's on the windowsill in the upstairs bathroom Grin. As I am currently 10+5 I'm sure it could go somewhere else (recycling? Bin? Bathroom cabinet?) but that would involve me not being lazy a giant procrastinator.
