    My MW is generous, I get a fresh one each time. I think you can get them from the chemist.

    You should just be able to ask for another pot from the reception of your doctors. We are supposed to keep ours, but I ask for a new one every time! lol.

    I did that last pregancy just before my appointment amd it was full of wee lol found it a couple of days later yuck. I just got another from the reception and did a sample when I got there. You can also buy them from most chemists if you really need to get one before

    The chemist didn't have any said they don't do them anymore they said only the doctors have them so OH went to the doctors and they gave him some weird syringe tube thing that the syringe comes off o.o apparently they're the new pee pots.. weird!

    I'll ask the mw for a new one tomorrow :) I just can never pee when I'm there I feel under pressure hahah so I'd prefer to take it with me!

    Really? OMG! They definitely don't do that here LOL :haha:
    Is it just to test? We use the bathroom at the MW office to test ourselves - there's a whole setup in the bathroom and we just POAS, check against the sheet, and done!

    That's strange, I get given a pot every time I go, they don't even give me one to take home and bring back, I just nip to the loo and do a sample there and then. It's different if you struggle to pee when you're there, I've never had a problem with doing it so I suppose that's one reason I don't need to take one home with me.
    I can't believe you have to keep the same one and wash it yourself though!

    omg losing the pot is sacrilege :/ PLUS when you are really heavily pregnant it's virtually impossible to pee into one haha I am seriously considering actually buying a funnel for this time round, no more pee hands :/
