LIVE RECAP
On this week’s episode of Real Housewives of Orange County Meghan is very excited about having her eggs implanted. She is talking to her mother about the party.

The Dr. calls them in and them that they only have four embryos that fertilized. They had three girls and one boy. After a short conversation they decide to implant one of the stronger girls and the little boy. Meghan says “I never imagined that my husband wouldn’t be in the room when I got pregnant.”
Heather and Tamra are hanging out making books. Tamra asks Heather “How are you?” Heather says “I am really shaken up and appalled. I never thought that Kelly would act like that.” Tamra says “ I kind of feel sorry for her. Something happened to her that has left her damaged.” Heather says “You can’t invite her to go anywhere if she is going to behave like that.”
Kelly goes to visit Meghan after her insemination. Meghan tells her “I have to tell you I am on Shannon’s side. Your behavior the other night with the names you called her I was ashamed to be your friend.” Kelly says “I went from 0 to 100 and I completely overreacted. I am really sorry. I was ashamed of myself. “ Kelly is very upset. She says “Wait until you have your own kid.” Meghan is really upset, but she tells her “You can move beyond this by being calmer and just go forward.” Kelly tells her “Thank you, You have been such a good friend to me.”

Vicki and Kelly meet up to have dinner. Kelly tells Vicki “I talked to Meghan and she said that she was at Shannon’s party.” Vicki looks really sad. The two women discuss the situation with Shannon and Kelly says “I tried to put the situation aside when I had coffee with her. My mother was a screamer so sometimes I resolve conflict in a loud voice.”
Kelly also tells Vicki “I want you to tell me how to be a better person.” Vicki tells her “Just try to ignore the drama and be the bigger person.” Kelly says “They all hate us because they can’t be us.”
