My head is spinning! I am already on IVF steps

My last IUI failed on Sunday, so I called my RE and the nurse got me started on BCP as of yesterday (CD3)! Phew...things are flying by so fast so my head is spinning.
For some reason, I thought I would first have a consultation, educational session & financial session and the cycle starts, but I guess CD3 is a magic number and I am already on the IVF ride.
I am meeting my RE for a consultation this Friday and he will go over my protocol, but can I assume ER/ET will happen in the beginning of July?! Holy cow!

Re: My head is spinning! I am already on IVF steps
It's possible you could be cycling that quickly. You could call the clinic and see when their next stim-start date is and you'd get a better ballpark.
good luck!
