Chickadee. If the doctor asks you to provide a urine sample while you are at the surgery, she will give you a stainless steel kidney dish to take to the loo, to use. Then you transfer the liquid into the small container. Although it is more likely she will give you the small container to take home, to follow the same procedure, and return it the next day, as it is usually the first early morning sample that is required.
chickadee..........no you can't. Do as you are told...the pot will have label on and as I said, it has to be mid stream.
Look...........no big deal, just go to the toilet and mid way through, put the pot in the appropriate place.
Wash your hands and give the pot +urine back to the receptionist.
An empty oblong icecream plastic carton is good for this as you can stand holding it between your legs,then because it has corners it's easy to transfer to a small bottle.
