I have my CD11 follie scan tomorrow, which is great. However, I completely forgot that he said I would probably be triggering Monday and I snatched up an 8am-8pm shift that day at work. I don't know if the plan is to have me come back in for another scan, or if he can let me take the shot home and I can do it myself... Any thoughts based off experience? I'll find out tomorrow (Friday) for sure but I'm just sitting here kicking myself so I thought I'd ask.

My RE always has you trigger at home if you are doing IUI, or in office if doing TI, but can trigger at home for TI as well. He may let you trigger on your own if you are comfortable doing it, or else they may have you come back in office, it really just depends on the doctor.

So it's not routine to do a scan on the same day they trigger just to be sure they know how many follies and what sizes?

It depends. My Re either scans same day or day before trigger, just depending on what your follies are like.

Grumbling.......... I have a feeling he's going to want me to come back in Monday for a scan. Ugh. I do in-home care, so if absolutely nothing else, I may just drag her along to my appointment, lol. I'll talk to the office about it and see if someone can cover the shift or a portion of the shift, or if not, if she can just come... Ugh. I aggravate myself...
