IUI & timing question

I just received a call from my RE and they want to do my IUI tomorrow.  It's been several days since DH and I had sex (probably a little over a week - I actually can't remember), and we were planning on doing it tonight thinking my IUI would be Monday.   

I guess my question is, do you think this IUI will be a waste?  I still want to do it, since I'm on the meds anyway, and then just BD every night this weekend, but DH is questioning why we're even doing the IUI now.

Thoughts?

    He hasn't - and I mentioned to the nurse that I spoke with and she just said they would note it, but didn't indicate one way or another.  Now I wish I would've pressed her more on it - they're hard to get on the phone!
