POAS question (FMU related)
Ok, so I know I'm jumping the gun here bc I'm only a few DPO but I'm plotting out my course of action
My question is: When I finally do POAS, and I pee into a cup so that I can dip the stick in it, how long can I use that urine for? I know it sounds gross but here is my thought process, if I POAS and get a BFP ( ) and I want to double check with a digital but don't want to wait until the next day, can I run out and by a digital real quick, come home and retest with the same urine?

I think you can. That is what I plan to do too!!!! Use the cheapie from the dollar tree, then run out to confirm with a digital.

Re: POAS question (FMU related)
Hmmm...why not just buy the digital now and "hide it" so when you get your BFP on the cheapie test you can use the digital without even having to run to the store!

Re: POAS question (FMU related)
I believe the half life or whatever or urine is 12 hours so as long as you use it again within a few hours, you're fine. Also, if you store it (ummm in a closed cup, I would say) in the fridge or a cool place, it can be fine for longer. I don't really see anyone having a need to do this, though, but I just wanted to put that out there.
An hour or two or even 3 later is perfectly fine.
