You know what? I don't believe testing in the morning is always the best method. I drink a lot of fluids before bed; and by morning, my pee is very dilluted. Dilluted pee = dilluted hcg?
By the way, I am very angry with E.P.T. I don't approve of that clear spot in the middle of the negative line. Does anybody know what I mean? Before and after the test is taken there is a clear spot in the middle of the neg line. I like First Response. I've gotten two negatives, but I am going to test again. Feedback!

Hello icecream! :)


I think they mainly recommend the FMU b/c it tends to not be so diluted, but if you drink a lot of fluid then your right it might not be as concentrated. Try not having anything to drink for a few hours and let your urine get that really good yellowy color (you know how it's not usually supposed to be?!) :) and then try testing.


I read somewhere that one way to not waste a hpt on urine that's not concentrated enough is to buy the kind you pee in a cup first, that way you can see what color it is first, then if it's the right color you can use that. I think the $$ tree stores are good for that. They come with a a little dropper that you use to place a few drops into a well on the test. Also, I heard that those $$ tree tests are pretty accurate too.


Have you checked out www.peeonastick.com? That's a great site with information on just about EVERY HPT there is out there.


Good luck and let us know how you're doing!! :)
