The instructions for my Wondflo say to dip the strip in the urine for 3 seconds up to the max line but not to let it exceed the max line. However, when I hold it in the urine for 3 seconds, it absorbs past the max line. Is this normal/okay? Or should I pull it out of the urine when it reaches max? I don’t want to flood the test, but I want it to be accurate. Thanks!!
