POAS or Dip testing

Just curious - when carrying out a pregnancy test, do you wee on the stick directly or dip the test into a jar?

My mates and I are in a group chat and one of them said they test by dipping the test into a jar (using a clear blue or FR). It raised a few questions from the group shall we say lol!

Lol I always DIP. Why did it raise questions?peeing on a tick seems super messy sorry! Lol

@ChicaXS the girls said they've never done it that way before. One of them believed it would be more accurate to POAS lol.

Pee is pee lol. I do know sometimes at hospital tests they prefer you to pee a little first then pee in a cup for accurate results (I think it’s due to bacteria build up) but peeing is peeing and should reflect the same results. Was never a fan on peeing on a stick due to the mess lol
