Question about taking a PT...

DH and i are doing it tomorrow together and I want to do it in the morning because I've heard that you want it to be as concentrated as possible. However I always wake up at like 5am to pee so if I go to the bathroom and put it in a cup and save it until we actually wake up will that be okay?

This. Just test at 5am. You probably won't be able to go back to sleep just thinking about that pee. GL!

See question #37 - Can I still use pee that has been sitting in a cup for multiple hours?

Short answer, yes you can. The HCG does break down over time. A few hours isn't that big of a deal, but it will decrease the amount of HCG that the test can detect.

Wouldn't it be easier to just take the test and wait the 3 minutes to find it?

Yeah, this. Or hold your pee until you're ready to get up?

I want to thank you for mentioning this site.  It's not on the "New to TTC" post, and I only just picked it up today.  I'm 15DPO and AF is 1 day late, but still BFN.  Question 21 put me as ease.  

Do you know if someone can add it to that "New to TTC" post?

I didn't see/process the PT acronym right away so I thought this was a post about sex. I was like, "wow, concentrate as hard as possible? really?" 

Yes it will be ok. I've heard of people peeing in a cup then saving it until DH gets home from work in the afternoon. wow (and way to go willpower). 

As for the people who said "just take the test," well she said she wanted to take it with DH and can't hold her pee.
