So here's the deal.
Got a job offer for my dream job. Everything contingent on drug screen and background check. Pretty much set and clear and the last step was Friday's drug screen.
I'm a breastfeeding mom to a exclusively breastfed baby and drink tons of fluid in a day! On my best day I can drink up to a gallon (yay me!) I drink water all day and all night too! I always have a bottle near my bed for bathroom trips and nursing episodes. That, and I take prenatals- the perfect lactating patient really lol!
Tested Friday afternoon and only had 30-40oz for my whole morning 7am-300pm. Had my prenatal too.
Pee came out neon yellow (duh I take vitamins).
I coincidently had a friend testing the same day - unrelated job. She got to talking about how worried she was about a dilute specimen (she's a weed smoker) and how she hopes she passed.
Uhm what!? Dilute specimen ? That's a thing?? Always been a drinker of water and never had an issue with any tests in my life. But for once I wonder ?? Could this be an issue for me??
Not overtly worried but curious.
Thanks! My husband poured me a glass of wine and said "you need to relax" lol
