IUI- Financially draining daily co-pay 😩

Tina • Fri, Aug 16 • Hello moms to be, I`m new here.TTC baby#1 .Long distance relationship. Not really helping,but staying optimistic.

round2 for me. Today was day 11 first blood work and ultrasound (follicle size 21mm). Was told to come back tomorrow morning for another blood work + ultrasound. Was also told I might be using the trigger shot any day now.

Very frustrating to have to go in each morning and spend $40 (co-pay) , just to be told to come back the next day for the same thing; if it was free of charge of course I wouldn’t mind.

I am really thinking about skipping monitoring tomorrow morning and going in Saturday morning instead 😩; hoping that would be my last monitoring before trigger shot. So I don’t have to keep paying $40 for nothing . Times are hard on my end and though my insurance covers most of it, paying $40 each time it’s quite a struggle.

During my first

round I nearly had 5 monitoring prior to the trigger shot. Wasn’t easy at all. Very frustrating indeed. Has anyone ever skipped monitoring days, just to avoid unnecessary co-pay? Has this altered your monitoring or overall

cycle in anyway?
