What is your idea of FMU?

[DiannaQ]

Hey there

Just wondering what your idea of FMU (first morning urine) is?? For example - do you or have you taken a test in with you at say 3am?? I have a tendency to have to get up at least once through the night and am wondering whether to test in the middle of the night/early morning or just test when I get up for the day?? what do you think??

who would have thought there would be such a science behind it

Wish me luck

I had never thought about it in the middle of the night when i woke up, just when I got up in the morning. It's an interesting theory because if you've gone to bed at say 10pm & tested at 3am that's 5hrs concentration compared to weeing at 3am then testing at 6am which would be 3hrs concentration.

Now you've done it, you got me thinking! Now when we're TTC again I'll be testing at 3am LOL!!

Oh great then I won't be the only loony trying to wee on a stick with the light from my mobile to guide me

I hadn't even thought about it until the other day when my girlfriend told me that's what she did and it got me thinking

The question is though when you get a BFP, can you hold it in until morning or will you rush in & wake DH up? I would be shaking him going "OMG OMG" and he'd probably think someone was breaking into the house!

That's exactly what my girlfriend did and DH didn't remember in the morning - lol - he thought he dreamt it.

I think I'd have to wake DH - there is no way I could sustain myself.

Oh well at this point I'm not sure I've commited myself to time ....still looking at waiting until I'm late, my track record with baby no.1 was horrendous for hpt's - i'm sure I kept their businesses afloat - hence why I'm holding back with this one but then again that could all change at 3am - lol

Well good luck with it for whenever you test! You know now when I'm up for my early morning pregnant wee I'll be thinking of you weeing on a stick
