I'm sooooooooo Team Amelia. Derek was such a jerk to her.

I kind of think that Callie was looking for a way out with the baby thing, because both times it looked like Arizona hit a snag, Callie pounced on it and asked if she wanted to bail. I think Callie has deeper feelings about that. And given what she said in the surrogacy office, I think it relates to her not being able to carry and maybe resenting Arizona for being able to, but choosing not to.

I really want to know what they were thinking. I would have picked Bailey from the early years in a heartbeat, but right now Bailey has become a bully who's full of herself. I do wonder what Alex's new responsibilities are. Maybe Arizona steps back a lot in peds? That seemed like her biggest struggle with keeping up. She still had a lot of peds cases while she was also trying to start to learn fetal surgery. If Arizona steps back in peds, she might hire him as an attending there to take some of the cases so she's more free to concentrate on her fellowship. I think Arizona was expecting this fellowship to be a snap like her first one was, but unlike her last fellowship, this time she's married, has a child, and is (was?) trying to have another one, PLUS she still has her peds surgery cases and board member duties. That's a lot to have on your plate at once. She can't ditch the wife and mom thing or the board member thing, so I think the peds surgery cases are going to have to go. And possibly (at least temporarily) the quest for another child. I still do think surrogacy is going to happen at some point.
