You can, but if it's early, the urine might be too diluted and show a false negative, wasting your kit. It's better to wait for the next morning's first urine to get an accurate result without buying more kits.
Honestly, the morning sickness itself was my test! But yes, morning is best. If you test in the afternoon, just try not to drink too much liquid beforehand so the test works properly.
Midday testing works fine if your period is already late by a week or more because hCG is high enough. But if you're testing early, stick to the first morning urine for accuracy.
I know how hard it is to wait till morning when you are so anxious to find out! If you are already past your missed period by several days, you can test midday. Sending you lots of love.
With my PCOS, my cycles were so unpredictable. I tried testing in the afternoon and got a negative, but the morning test next day was positive. So I suggest waiting for the morning to be sure.
If you test in the midday, make sure you don't drink water for 3-4 hours before testing so the hCG level is concentrated. Otherwise, you'll worry yourself over a false negative. Best is morning!
I was so impatient that I tested in the afternoon too, and the line was barely visible! I got so anxious that I couldn't sleep. Did anyone else get a clear positive during midday?
