Very new to treatment

Hi! My daughter is almost 5 and we've been actively tried to have a baby for the last 4 years with absolutely no luck. We decided in April to go see a fertility specialist and we are barely getting our results this Thursday (thanks a lot Tricare and your ridiculous referral system). Anyway, I am a mess. I don't know what to expect. My doctor told us we would probably start Clomid depending on those results. Any of you ladies have any advice or questions I should ask at my appointment?

    Welcome!  I am sorry you feel so overwhelmed... I was the same way.  It is a lot to think about and a lot to learn about in the world of infertility-- lessons none of us ever wished to learn.  But try to think of this as your chance to make things happen and keep a positive attitude. Did you do all the preliminary testing?  Ovarian reserve?  Sperm Analysis?  Check your tubes?  I think the doctor will have a good plan for you depending on your specific situation. As 1983Lindsey2 suggested... it is a great idea to take notes and bring your husband/partner with you so you are both listening together.  Good luck to you!!!
