You can buy the ones that r POAS and won't have to worry about a cup. Also, maybe you can get the little dixie cups and keep it in your pocketbook and just bring your bag to the RR with you?

Re: Answer OPKs....here we go...
do it between 2:00 & 8:00 - don't do it at 2:00. The hormone you are testing for builds in your system as the day goes on....
Personally - i try to do mine as close to 8:00 pm as I can. I find the timing does affect the 'darkness' of the lines.
If you do it later - you can do it at home!

I'd suggest doing it once you get home from work!
Just FYI - my friend used the Answer OPKs and got 4 days of +OPKs I did some research on here and FF and found that was common with that brand.

I'm a fan of the Target brand. Reliable and not too pricey!

you can do it any time after 2:00 - but before 8:00 (i don't know why before 8 - but it's what they say).
Maybe start your hold at 2:00 and do the test at 6:00...this way - you will be home and it should be before dinner :)
also - be sure to limit your beverage intake during the hold...
