Urine collecting bottle is provided for use by a supine female, in which the bottle includes an opening portion with a mouth, and a liquid-collecting vessel attached to the opening portion through a neck portion. The liquid-collecting vessel is of a size and shape so as to rest on the same horizontal surface during use that the supine female is resting upon. The urine-collecting bottle includes a positioning handle and a carrying handle. The positioning handle includes two contoured recesses which can receive two fingers of a human hand, and are used by the supine person to position the urine-collecting bottle in the correct orientation for collecting urine while maintaining good hygiene. Each contoured recess has a forward surface and rearward surface that can contact one of the user's fingers thereby providing a fulcrum effect about the area around the mouth of the urine-collecting bottle. The user's fingers can be extended into the contoured recesses from either end of the contoured recesses. The mouth is inclined at an angle that allows the urine-collecting bottle to be placed upon the bed surface while the female user is in a supine position on that bed. The inclined angle of the mouth is designed to position the upper area of the mouth closer to the female than the lower area of the mouth. The mouth includes an annular bellows having a flexible inner lip, which provide a good sealing action against the vaginal area of the female user, and the inwardly-directing flexible lip also tends to retain liquid that has entered the mouth of the urine-collecting bottle.
