You should generally have an idea at the first scan when the doctor would like to do a pick up BUT it could be give or take couple of days.

Once you have the egg pick up, your doctor will probably have already decided if you are having a 3 or 5 day transfer. So from egg pick up, you should know in advance that your implantation will be in 3 or 5 days time after that.

Cycles really differ, I guess it's up to how you respond to the drugs. If a lot of drug dose adjustment needs to be done through a cycle,your fs will probably want to see you more often for scans. I have also known girls who have only had one, maybe two scans through the whole cycle.

I myself didn't have ANY blood tests except for the final pregnancy test.

I would plan ahead enough to tell your work you will be having some medical procedures and need a little flexibility for appointments.

The whole process from start to pregnancy test is about 4 - 1/2 weeks. The last two weeks are just waiting though! The first two weeks is go go go!
