My problem was pulling it out from under the belly. I couldn't see and hit my hand and pee went flying, literally flying everywhere. On my hand, on my pants, on my shirt, on the floor.</p> <p>Not my finest or most graceful moment! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655696 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:57:46 +0000 Ra 655696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: I'm glad I'm not the only one! I think I may have to steal your method :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655608 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:16:09 +0000 Anagram 655608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: ah! My doctors have never said that--at any doctor I've been to. The usually give the wipes and instruct to clean from front to back before peeing for that reason. So maybe different doctors do it differently. But that explains it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655599 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:13:51 +0000 DillonLion 655599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: The instructions at my office always said do not touch the cup to your body at any time whatsoever b/c it will contaminate the sample? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655559 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:03:06 +0000 .twist. 655559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: haha no I think you're doing it right. I can't "stop" the flow so I just try to quickly get the cup in there mid stream..... LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655551 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:02:02 +0000 Anagram 655551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wait.....I think this is TMI....but don't you just hold the cup right up next to your..ahem...body? Even if the instructions are to not use first pee, I just pee a little, stop the flow, then hold the cup right up against me and pee the rest.</p> <p>Am I doing it wrong? Or am I really going to get so huge I won't be able to reach that far? What am I missing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655544 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 16:00:21 +0000 Alivoo01 655544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm doing okay so far because I hold the cup like RIGHT there when I pee. Once my belly is bigger, and is in the way, I'm going to have to do what @highwire did because I can't squat and pee for the life of me! It's a HUGE mess. =\ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655481 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:40:00 +0000 tororojo 655481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yikes! I got really good at aiming into a cup over the course of pregnancy. But at my 40 week appt. I peed all over my hand...I felt like such a failure for not having a successful finale. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655479 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:38:54 +0000 LindsayInNY 655479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to give a sample the other day because I'm sick (but not pregnant). The doctor wanted to confirm it so he could prescribe a specific cough medicine. Well, he's a solo doctor so there's no private bathroom in his office. He gave me the cup in a paper bag and had me use the hallway in the bathroom. No biggie except there were 3 people waiting in his lobby that I had to walk by twice. It was so obvious what I was doing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655477 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:37:43 +0000 .twist. 655477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: I'm not quite there yet, but I can only imagine! hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655472 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:36:30 +0000 DillonLion 655472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: The end was just a total shot in the dark. I couldn't see anything whatsoever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655469 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:35:44 +0000 .twist. 655469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: haha mine too. I'm such a messy pee-er. I would try cleaning it all off like there were no problems, but if anyone could see me in the during pee process, I think they would laugh their ass off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655462 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:33:39 +0000 DillonLion 655462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: My cup always had pee all over it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655455 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:31:10 +0000 .twist. 655455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: bahahahaha me too!!!! OMG I am so glad I am not the only one. Honestly, the bathrooms had signs that said never to get any urine on the rim of the cup in case of bacteria and skewed results. YEA OK. I'll just whip out my whiz ezee and make sure not to get a drop anywhere but the inside of the cup!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655417 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:19:32 +0000 Foodnerd81 655417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes i wonder why the person in front of me in the bathroom at the midwife office takes SO long in there. This is probably why. I should be more patient :) </p> <p>I haven't had any problems, yet, but I can still see what I'm doing. Once the belly gets bigger... I may have to follow @highwire: 's lead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655414 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:19:08 +0000 Turd Ferguson 655414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baaahahahah. At my appointment today I was supposed to wait until the very end of my (2 HOUR) appointment when I went to the lab but I could. not. wait. So she brought me a cup and told me to put it in a bag (that they gave me) and bring it back to her...I just had visions of the lid not being tight enough and tipping and spilling and the bag just leaking pee... </p> <p>You win though...well done. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655392 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:11:55 +0000 DillonLion 655392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uh, every time I gave a urine sample during pregnancy I'd pee all over my hand, spill it on my clothes, spray all over the floor. I had no aim. </p> <p>I started completely removing my pants and undies and putting them in the opposite corner of the bathroom to protect them... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/welp-that-just-happened#post-655377 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:04:03 +0000 Ra 655377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm at the doctor's office for my monthly check up. While collecting my urine sample I somehow hit my hand on the edge of the toilet and spilled pee all over myself.</p> <p>How. Freaking. Embarrassing. </p>
