HI hun - i know i've got the CBFM this month but have been using cheapies the last cycles. I use the same cup washed and dried each day. I held from 1pm (after luch) until 4.30ish when i got home. I found it hard as i get thirsty. I never got a dark or as dark as test line line! Last month i had nothing for several days, then faint, then a bit darker, then bit more darker, then back to faint, then nothing - so something obviously was going on!
You have to pee in a cup and dip as you can't pee on the dye bit as you could upset the result - it's more accurate even though it's fiddly!Oh, wait at least 5-10 mins -mine didn't show until nearer to 10 both months!

i just used an egg cup, lol! I rinsed and let it air dry after use. Also, ive used the opk's whenever i wanted, never held anything in ever..as had ewcm i tested and got a +, but i do feel opk's are fiddly!

I only used them as had mc and had to wait for af before could use the cbfm again. Will never go back... trying to interpret them etc is too much work, lol

Good luck to you though, chicken xxx

Also be aware that they come in different sensitivity levels - I used the 40 something ones before and they didn't really work very well I don't think so I have more sensitive ones this month. It can work the other way too if you use ones that are too sensitive for you they won't work properly either. Haven't worked them out properly myself yet!

I use a disposable cup & wash it out after use. Will throw it away in a few days and use a new one next month... sorry I mean next time I TTC as this month everyone's going too get a BFP!

Love the using the pouch idea, was wondering what to use when out and unable to carry a cup around, thanks mama2connor x

P.S. if your line gets darker you might want to test twice a day as some women O in 12 hrs so you might miss it if you're only testing once a day! x
