Hi OP. Our stories are similar. We just had our 4th IUI. I always check with the Clear Blue Fertility Monitor and 3 IUIs were done on peak day 2. Obviously did not work so this cycle we had a back to back IUI (two days in a row) on both peak days. I usually had sono and monitoring on cd12, which was too late (this cycle we did the last monitoring and blood work on cd10 and the IUIs on cd12 and 13. Talk to your nurse if this cycle is not successful.
BTW, I'm on 13dpo now and HPTs show BFNs... so I think I'm out and just going straight to IVF.

Good luck!

OP here. I did have bloodwork done on Friday, but based on those levels they told me to skip coming in Saturday for monitoring and just to go ahead and trigger that night.

We are unexplained and this is our 3rd IUI. I find this whole process to be so stressful and feel somewhat lost in it. It's frustrating to think the timing of the IUI could be off.

Thanks for the responses.

You'll be fine OP.

9:34 here. This is interesting. In one cycle, i had a follicle at size 26. So if the release was delayed due to the trigger shot, wouldn't the egg be over mature?

Did they do bloodwork? Your blood estrogen and LH levels are the best indicators. I was too late on all 3 of my IUIs. They are difficult to time, and my clinic refused to listen when I told them I ovulate early every month. They'll likely do the IUI regardless; they say it can be done a few hours after ovulating and still be ok.

I am supposed to go in for an IUI tomorrow (Monday) and triggered last night (Saturday). I took an OPK earlier and Saturday and it came back positive. I triggered anyway, but I am nervous that my IUI tomorrow morning will be too late. Since it's Sunday I left a message on the nurse's line, but haven't heard back.

Do you think Monday is too late? I have no idea if I can go in today for an IUI. Thanks.
