It's been a day of very mixed news here... DH interviewed for a new job, and got offered it on the spot! :eek: It pays more than the current company, which is fantastic news when we are about to embark on IVF! Add that to the new teaching award I'm under which also gives us more money, plus DH being paid all the holiday pay that is owing to him as he leaves the current company... I'm feeling a whole lot more comfortable about this! We had enough in savings to get us through the first stim cycle and a transfer or two, but with this news, I at least know we're not going to be wiping out *all* of our reserves.

But... I've also found out that DH is going to be away for a couple of days in March... it's probably not going to be a problem, but I just don't know what the timetable is to know when I can expect EPU.

I'm currently on the pill, and have been told to stay on the active tablets up until the 8th of February when our next appointment is. I'm not entirely sure whether I'll start straight away, or need to have AF, then start, I just can't get my head around all the different protocols and time frames which all assume that I'll know when I'm going to get AF... I guess I will know, as it will be coming off the pill now, but I'm thoroughly confused!

Can anyone help an IVF newbie out with what I can expect from here?
