Can I join?

Hey ladies, can I join this thread? I'm meeting with my RE on the 25th and hoping to start IVF in August/September. Actually, honestly, I'm hoping I can get knocked up before then, but I won't hold my breath. IVF is the only thing giving me hope after a failed cycle and AF's refusal to show up (how insulting!).

I also wanted to ask anyone who might know - do you always take BCPs before an IVF cycle? For how long? My insurance will start paying half for IVF in August, so I'm trying to time this perfectly so I can do it as soon as possible...
