familyfirst answered Wednesday January 9 2008, 5:56 pm: It has been my experience that peeing into a clean container works better. The main reason is, the tests I have used have all said to hold the stick in your urine stream for 10 seconds. I don't have a 10 second stream!! I would urinate into a Dixie cup or something similar. The directions stated that if I used a clean container to hold the stick in for, I think 20 seconds. I just found that to be so much easier. Mine have always been accurate. I am pregnant with my third planned pregnancy so in trying to get pregnant the three different times I have probably taken at least 15 pregnancy tests. They have all been correct.
