uhh it's possible. They say to take it first pee. Only because there's nothing contaminating the pee. Any caffeines can effect the test. (so I've heard)

U can use any urine of the day, it's the concentration of the urine that matters. A positive is a positive, it doesn't matter if u took it with afternoon urine.
Caffeine ,itself, doesn't affect the test. It can cause u to urinate more frequently, which decreases the amount of time u hold it for, thus decreasing the concentration of pregnancy hormone in that urine. The actual caffeine doesn't affect the hormone tho. U don't need to test on an empty stomach either.
Give ur dr a call and they'll let u know when they wanna start seeing u.

Congrats! =))
