Can I test from some saved urine?

[Miaowzen]

I don't have any tests. If I saved some urine this morning in a container how long is it good for? Need to run down to the shops.

Erm, I think the chemicals fade, then again I may be wrong. Never done it before. Even so the results could be unreliable, I would use fresh or wait until tomorrows early urine. Whats it testing for?

I am pretty sure you can as long as you keep it in the fridge. I read that somewhere..

You are going to be pregnant for nine months..one day won't change it..go buy your test and wait until tomorrow..If you REALLY can't wait( which I am prone to do..haha).then cut your liquids for a while and test later today...If you are already late for AF testing anytime should be OK anyway. Its only when you are testing early that it needs ot be first moring urine to be more accurate..Good Luck!

Abbys mommy, it's because I'm hot and nauseous but bleeding. I'm scared I'm losing a bean. If I wait until tomorrow it might be too late. In any case, I tried with the stored urine in a jar and got BFN so you are right, but maybe now that I got BFN Auntie Flo might turn up properly.
