Starting on the IF Path

Hi,

 I'm not a regular poster, so please forgive me if I mis-type anything. I'm just another reproductively challenged person trying to start a family with my DH.

 My DH and I have tried unsuccessfully for 19 cycles to get pregnant. Monday we have our first appointment with an infertility specialist and I've done quite a bit of research and have a sister who recently had a failed IVF helping me, but I think you can never have enough information.

 I was just wondering from those who have been going through treatments if there is any advice you can offer that didn't know about before getting started. Or something you didn't know before seeing an infertility doctor that you wish you did.

 I feel a little overwhelmed with everything out there... including which board to post on Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer.
