Anyone see last nights episode? I thought the part with Whitney, the fertility nurse was so awesome. I actually teared up a little when she showed them doing ICSI. And it was hilarious when she told him to give a sample to test.

    I did see it! I liked her enthusiasm for helping families struggling with IF, but I could have lived without his, "I'm such a manly man, my sperm must be excellent," attitude. DH was all, "Dude, if only you knew."

    Yes! I loved it too. Sooo awesome. I actually think she'd be a great fit for him but I worry she would miss her job moving out to Arlington.

    DH watched that part with me and recognized the chair immediately. He had me laughing so hard. I like Whitney and love that she opened that world up.

    I just caught up last night - I love Whitney, hands down my favorite. Given where she is at in her life, I Think she would be ok walking away from her job if she went on to get married and have kids. I think she would sacrifice it to have her own family, and I actually think she would do well in Arlington because she would be so happy to have a mom/dad family relationship in her life.

    am I the only one who thinks that the story line about Becca being a virgin is totally scripted?

    I don't know. I guess I'll have to see how their fantasy suite date goes. It looks dramatic!

    I would believe Becca's story before Ashley's. She was way too physical to not have done something with someone at one point.

    I was completely shocked he kept Becca over Kaitlyn.... I feel like if he picks Whitney it'll work out but he'll probably pick Becca because obviously he has a major thing for her
