The cup I have currently is larger than that since I don't have any dixie cups at home, but I'll be sure to buy them for next time!</p> <p>@septca: @Radish: @littlek: Thanks ladies! Glad to know that 5 minute time limit isn't THAT important! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-for-wondfo-opk-pros#post-1498020 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:25:10 +0000 littlek 1498020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with @septca you can tell that the OPK is going to be positive pretty quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-for-wondfo-opk-pros#post-1498008 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:20:12 +0000 Radish 1498008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only thing I can answer is I would take it and forget and check 30+ min later and I don't think it made a difference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-for-wondfo-opk-pros#post-1497994 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:16:39 +0000 septca 1497994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>- I never had any trouble wrapping the stick or putting it in my pocket. </p> <p>- In my experience, you'll *know* when it's going to be +. The time limits don't matter in the same way for OPKs as for HPTs. On a true +, the test line will show up and darken as soon as the urine crosses it. On a - test, it usually takes a few minutes for the test line to appear and darken. Fwiw, this has all been my experience only - and I always have a test line on OPKs, it's just light until near O, when it fades in over 2-3 days to a true +. Then it fades out. </p> <p>- When I tested at work, I would bring a Dixie cup with me and then throw it away. Both the cup and the test pack fit in a pocket, so I don't think any explanation is necessary. I used to be able to pee into the empty test packet, but that takes skill that I no longer have (thank you, childbirth - not). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-for-wondfo-opk-pros#post-1497987 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:14:37 +0000 snowjewelz 1497987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't use Wondfo but re: your last question about doing this at work, how big is the cup you bring? Can you get those small dixie cups and put it in a cosmetic type bag? I usually do that since that's how I'd bring in pads/tampons to change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/questions-for-wondfo-opk-pros#post-1497969 Mon, 17 Mar 2014 09:08:26 +0000 Adira 1497969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>- How important is it to lay the strip flat immediately? I'm at work, so is it okay to put it back in the package and hold it fairly vertical as I walk back to my desk?</p> <p>- How important is sticking to the 5 minute time? If I end up not checking it for 10-15 minutes, is that okay??</p> <p>- If you test at work - how do you explain to people why you brought a cup into the stall with you to pee?? </p>
