Hoping that cysts get smaller this cycle so that, if no natural BFP, we're able to try meds again next cycle.

We're so far away from my family and I really wish we could spend time with them this holiday, but it doesn't look that likely. My family often goes to the mountains over new years' and I really want to go, but I don't know if it will work. :(
