Clear blue ultra early

I'm 6 days before period due today so believe I can use the clear blue ultra early test. However I just read that it should be the first urine of the morning... oops. Should I use it for the second or wait until tomorrow morning?

The percentage of actually getting a positive 6 days early on the early tests is very small something like 5%. However obviously someone has to be in the 5%. FMU has the highest concentration so it's best to use FMU however if your anything like me and can't wait then you need to stop drinking and try and hold your urine for 4 hours so it isn't too diluted. This early the hcg in your urine will be very small so any dilution will get a negative result. Also don't be disheartened if it is negative this early it doesn't mean it's over for this cycle. implantation can happen between 6-12 DPO and you don't produce HCG until implantation has happened

Dpo matters more than days before period - they estimate 6 days before period on the test marketing as that should be approx 8dpo (assuming a ovulation at cd14 and cycle of 29 days). Problem is most people's cycles are not like that. I've found FRER (which is highest sensitivity) completely reliable at 10dpo using first morning urine. If that's positive, it's positive, if negative, negative (in my experience, others may have gotten different results!)
