How important is it to use OPK's during the day as opposed to first thing in the morning?

I bought the clear blue easy ones and haven't decided yet whether I will use them this month (which is only our first month trying) or next month or the month after if it doesn't happen.

The thing is I pee ALL DAY LONG. Especially after having a baby it is HARD to hold it in for that long! I can't imagine holding it in for 4 hours during the day and not drinking much during that time!

The directions say anytime including first thing in the am but, i know on here i read that from 2-8 is the best. Obviously if I am going to go through this hassle I want to optimize my chances so if it makes a big difference I'll suck it up - does it? Also, any tips on best time to take it in that frame to make it easier Chat Icon

THANK YOU!

Mine said that it does not matter when you test, just to test at the same time everyday. Chat Icon

I usually cant hold it for 4 hours either. Whenever I tested I was only able to make it to about 2-3 hours. I usually tested anytime in the afternoon and sometime late at night (9pm) and never had a problem. Whenever i was oulating I would get my Chat Icon regardless of what time of day it was.
