What can you tell me about your experience with assisted reproductive technology?

Have you or your partner undergone treatments for infertility? Can you tell me your experience with it, how you weathered the different ways it takes a toll? How did you pay for it?
We have not begun IVF, we are still doing less invasive protocols, but we’re getting to the point in treatment where it is becoming likely to be the next step and it helps to hear from others who have been through it.
