Hello All,
I know everyone's body and IVF cycles are different but I'm just trying to get a little insight before I start my IVF cycle especially with the holidays coming and such. How long was your actually IVF cycle...from AF to actually ER and ET? I'm expecting AF this weekend, so I'll go in for my baseline and we'll go from there with a schedule. I'm not doing BCP pills just Lupron during the LP. Any input is greatly appreciated!

Around January 1- started BCPs
January 27 - Stopped BCPs
January 30 - Cycle Day 1 of my LAST menstrual period!! (Not forever, but ...)
February 4 - Started stims
February 14 - Egg retrieval
February 19 - 5-Day Transfer, 1 Perfect embryo
February 25 - Positive HPT!!!
March 1 - Positive beta at RE's office
Other than the 30th, 14th, and 19th - I may be off a day or two. But that's the basic schedule I had.
We had one last Thanksgiving IUI and then spent Christmas prepping ourselves for IVF. Once you start, it goes by soooo quickly!
Good luck... One of my IVF successes is refusing to nap at this very moment.
