Morning! So I am in the process of an IUI. I started letrozole Wednesday and have to go back next Wednesday for blood work and ultra sound. I was so excited that I forgot I had booked a trip for a family event for 4th of July. I am leaving on the 28th and won’t be back till the 5th. Did I just screw myself over? I’m waiting for the nurse to call me back but I’m so anxious figured I’d ask here!

I don’t think you’ve screwed yourself - the IUI itself is done somewhere around day 12-15 (mine have been day 13 / 14) and then you wait two weeks. For those two weeks there’s nothing really to do but wait (ie no appointments). I would do the calendar math but I think you’ll be ok. Check with your RE on if you need an appointment after 2 weeks or just a home pregnancy test and then I’d also ask if you’re eligible for next month (meaning if your period ends up coming while you’re gone, will you still be able to do a second month of IUI - if this was something you’re interested in).
