Needless to say, i ALWAYS filled it up. (and also ended up with the other 5 oz. on my hand or something gross like that that). THEN, instead of passing it through the pee door, i had to hold onto it in the waiting room until i was called for my weigh in. it was always an awkward hand off to get that vile of pee to the nurse. The plus side? I was always weighed in kilos, so i felt pretty good about things...Mariposahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06515020926349942530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937001.post-70936686823786803692008-08-10T23:35:00.000-06:002008-08-10T23:35:00.000-06:00The further along you get, the easier it will be t...The further along you get, the easier it will be to pee on command, even if it'd only a little.

Oh, and when I worked at the jail, there were women who would get someone else's pee, put it in a ziplock baggie and keep in in their whoo-hoo. Then, they'd wear a ring with a sharp edge and bam, when it was time to pee, it was always the right temp and clean... then again, they had to be watched the whole time. Oh, and my girl's heartbeat has always been slower than my boy's. But you're having a girl.Bethany @ The Paper Ponyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133188505678873099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937001.post-87906117172504444712008-08-07T22:32:00.000-06:002008-08-07T22:32:00.000-06:00I was blog hopping and I stumbled on your post -- ...I was blog hopping and I stumbled on your post -- you must know my sister Kathleen somehow. Having been pregnant numerous times, I feel like I am a peeing expert and wanted to share my expertise with you ;D! <BR/><BR/>I usually schedule my appointments first thing in the morning and don't eat or drink until after the appointment because I want to weigh as little as possible. This doesn't bode well if I can't hold my morning pee in. So quite a few times I've had teeny tiny samples. I was apologizing to the nurse one day -- since they test our urine in the patient's room -- and she told me she prefers smaller samples. They just stick a dip strip in it to check that your levels are ok -- no acid testing -- so when there's gobs of pee, it's pretty gross to them. They prefer it not to be full to the tippy top. So even if your bladder is full -- half a cup is more than plenty!<BR/><BR/>Hopefully you know Kathleen well enough that this won't freak you out. I mean, I'm commenting on a stranger's pee entry!Maddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15471993309516576874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937001.post-29113930078575322072008-08-07T14:48:00.000-06:002008-08-07T14:48:00.000-06:00I am new to the world of pregnancy as well and I a...I am new to the world of pregnancy as well and I am not an 'all-star' pee-er either... infact if it was crunch time and the coach had to rely on me...my team would lose!!<BR/><BR/>Love your blog...you are hilarious!Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15176133911500771742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937001.post-7987243068103826892008-08-07T14:02:00.000-06:002008-08-07T14:02:00.000-06:00There was an episode of "Bones" where the players ...There was an episode of "Bones" where the players on the basketball team all had to give a sample to prove they weren't on steroids. One steroid free player covered for another who was using them. They figured it out because two urine samples had the exact same strain of the clap. And then the murder victim had the clap and then . . .<BR/><BR/>Anyway. There are worse things. :)AmandaStretchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09649673692690240933noreply@blogger.com
