Fertility Treatment! One step closer..

After the discussion with Wogan Hemlock, Alvina decided to take it upon herself and hire a full time bodyguard. She was approved for one by the city council members, he's a former military man and construction worker named Wyatt Matthew he'll start as soon as the first baby of the challenge is born. It'll be nice to have a handyman around the house. -Alvina had thought.
In the meantime, it was time for Alvina to pursue her challenge and get the long awaited fertility treatment. Those babies aren't gonna come out on their own. She was paying a visit to Dr. Marcella.
Dr. Marcella Ceres had become a 4 star Renowned Obgyn because of Alvina's challenge, all the sims in town wanted her because she was making even the impossible possible.
Alvina looked through "the window of possibilities" as she liked to call it. In that very room her dream was going to come true!
This is so surreal. I can't believe this is actually going to happen today! -Alvina's mind was racing.
"Hello Dr. Marcella, I'll admit I'm a bit concerned about the procedure. Your general plan is to pump me up with drugs?" -Alvina asked nervously.
"The fertility drugs are meant to strength or trigger ovulation, fertility drugs can create miracles, making parenthood a reality. They are also generally effective. Your chances of pursuing the challenge will be greatly improved."  -Dr. Marcella spoke.
"What are the risks of the fertility treatment?" -Alvina asked as her mind began to wonder.
Everything is happening so fast, what if I go through with this and nothing happens? Will I be able to put myself through all of this agony again and experience more rejection?
"A risk that comes with fertility drug use is ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). OHSS occurs when the ovaries become unusually enlarged, filling with fluid. When ovulation occurs, the fluid is released into the body, causing complications that can lead to blood clots and kidney failure. However with careful monitoring of your cycle with monthly ultrasounds, I would be aware of the early symptoms. The earlier it's caught, the less chance of a severe case developing."
Alvina outweighed the rewards and the complications and was willing to take the risk even if her anxiety was at it's highest. The challenge was too important for her to give up on.
"Are you prepared for the treatment?" Dr. Marcella asked calmly. "Yes Doc, you are my friend and a genius. I trust you to help me complete this challenge." -Alvina spoke with confidence.
With all of that being said, Alvina got her long awaited lifetime supply of fertility treatment to get her through the 100 baby challenge.

It's Complicated

The decision has been made. Alvina had a way to succeed at becoming pregnant and there was no stopping her. She logged into Facebook to announce the exciting news!
The other 100 Baby Challenge mother's were supportive. Vanessa Woods added Alvina to the official 100 Baby challenge group; "Hey 100 Baby Challenge Mother's! Let's celebrate my initiation! The Grind tonight?! XD Tell me where to "meet" and I'll take Pictures!!!" -Alvina wrote enthusiastically.
Browsing the internet, she realized that her 4 star celebrity status was going to get her into more problems than she needed after reading about other challenge mothers being 'publicly disgraced'. "I suppose that's why Poison sang 'Every rose has it's thorn; reputation might have to be sacrificed" -she said to herself.
She took the initiative to go to City Hall and fill out some paperwork in regard of the challenge.
Brigit Hemlock "paparazzi" observed Alvina and wrote a report.
"Brigit? Brigit Hemlock? Wogan Hemlock's sister?.." Before Alvina had time to finish Brigit ran away. "That was very bizarre" Alvina thought to herself.
Alvina was stunned to see the ghost of her past appear. She had dated Brigit's brother decades ago and through the years lost touch with his family although looked at Brigit as a friend, infact the two were shopping buddies at one point, Alvina always gave the best style tips.
**(Flashback image)**
This was the first encounter with Brigit Hemlock. New Years Eve Alvina had seen her enter the dance floor at The Grind as everyone was leaving but didn't think anything of it however each time Brigit had a camera or pen in hand.
"I've had enough of this nonsense, this is getting ridiculous," Alvina became frustrated "..not even a hello? ok, something is going on and I'm getting to the bottom of it. Looks like I'm paying a visit to Wogan Hemlock."
"I would love to live in a penthouse but that's out of the question for the challenge, maybe after?" Alvina had
thought to herself.
"Who's this precious little Girl?" Alvina asked Wogan still in suprise that he had a child of his own. "Her name is Belisama and she's 2 now." he answered.
Belisama was a friendly little tot, she loved to giggle and the attention she got for it and now Alvina knows why. Belisama's smile was of her own, she had two fangs! Until now Alvina never met a child vampire although she was one herself she was awed by the little one.
Wogan interupted the duo who were bonding more easy than imagined. "Was there a reason you came here Alvina" the tone in his voice made it clear to Alvina seeing her was hard on him even though he had moved on. "Yes, your sister has been following me, I didn't realize she pursued a career in journalism but I hope she doesn't try to publicly disgrace me about the 100 baby challenge I'm doing especially if it was based on how our breakup affected her..." Wogan's face froze "Alvina let's discuss this upstairs"
The whole ride up in the elevator Alvina admired Belisama, longing for a child of her own. She also couldn't stop thinking about why Wogan's face froze when she mentioned his sister? Was he offended by her comment?
Alvina placed Belisama in her bed, taking care of kids came more natural to her than she had thought. It made her more excited for the challenge.
"Goodnight Angel" Alvina whispered and tucked her in.
As Wogan finished saying goodnight to Belisama, Morrigan Hemlock (Wogan's bride) introduced herself and sat down at the table. "So I hear Wogan's sister has become quite the little stalker with you, she did the same thing with me the heartless little wench, I was human when I was pregnant with Belisama, during or after the birth I became immortal because I was dying but she had in her mind that Beli was an abomination because no female vampire can birth a child..so I was publicly disgraced, what and aunt right?" she said coldly.
"How can anyone think little Beli is an abomination?" Alvina couldn't fathom it. "I don't understand what the big deal about a vampire having a child is? I've figured out a solution for my problem and I'M taking on the 100 Baby Challenge regardless if i'm a vampire.."
At this point Wogan sat down and Morrigan stood beside us. "Alvina I don't think your understanding us.." Wogan had interjected "The reason Morrigan doesn't like my sister nor do I is because she's against vampires having children. She and Jessica Talon have it out for anyone who even thinks about children! Have you ever wondered why there's fueds between covens or have you not paid attention? Infact Morrigan's friend Elvira Slayer still hates me for impregnating Morrigan but she's still our Ali. We have to watch Belisama carefully because when given the chance other covens want to take her away from us, kidnap her! For their own reasons whether to test on her, kill her or raise her as their own, all how they're feeling that day I suppose." His face expression was a worried one.
"I understand your reason for concern and I appreciate it but I'm going to take the 100 baby challenge even if people are against it, people aren't always going to agree with my decisions but they are MY decisions to make! I had no idea that your sister was involved in this fued nor did I know the reason for the fued. Jessica Talon isn't going to scare me, I might be new to this city but I've been a vampire longer than her and if anyone trys to take little Beli away from you let me know! I will be the first to rip the life out of them same goes when I have children, ANYONE trys to mess with MY family it'll be the end of them!" Alvina's hands began to clench "I'm so sorry about my temper but I need to catch some air, thankyou for having me but I must go now."
"I need to learn to control my temper, I have animal instincts when it comes to protecting my unborn children" Alvina thought to herself.
Wogan ran to meet up with Alvina. "I'm truely sorry Wogan, I didn't mean to blow up" Alvina spoke "It's really ok, I would've reacted the same way if I just found out, I just wanted you to know what your up against. Morrigan and I want you to know that we're your Ali's incase anything is needed in the future. I've seen how other 100 challenge moms follow rules and guide lines but I think you'll need extra protection and help because you can't be everywhere at once" he spoke calmly. "Thankyou, it means a lot to me that your so kind even after our breakup, I will have to create specific rules for my challenge but right now I have to vist The Grind because I invited some of the Challenge moms out not being aware of how my day was gonna turn out.."  Alvina said "Do you mind if I come with you, because I need to get some R&R myself" he laughed "Sure Mr. Family Man";) with a wink it was off to The Grind.
Right when Alvina walked in Sky, Vanessa Woods, and Dr. Marcella were getting their Dance On!
Elizabeth Aurora (Alvina's cousin) joined in and The Grind was looking busy.
Angel Renee and Amber Lights were talking about gardening or conception.
The challenge mother's were enjoying the girls night out. Wogan intoduced himself to Elizabeth to discuss the situation with her, Alvina assumed it was for moral support.
  Alvina couldn't get the challenge off her mind, "This challenge is causing so many obstacles..." she had thought to herself as Kirby Wise approached.

"I heard you were starting The 100 BabyChallenge?! I've been a fan of yours since you only had the one celebrity star! Can I please have your autograph?" Kirby sounded like an adoring fan.
"I can't resist to give such a nice person my signature. Thankyou for your support, it means a lot to me."
Whether it was the dancing, the support from the other challenge mother's or adoring fans, Alvina felt the weight on her shoulder disappear. "Can I get a round of drinks for the club and put it on my tab." Alvina felt ontop of her game at this point. "Nothing is gonna bring me down" she thought.
As the bartender poured dinks, Alvina decided it was her time to leave. Hugging the other mothers goodbye she was happy to leave on a positive note. "I think it's about time to start the challenge, I want my own kids now, just to find a male suitor.."

Meet Alvina Selene - Future Mother of 100 Baby Challenge.

Hello Readers! I'd love to introduce you to Alvina Selene! She is a 4 star celebrity and she has joined the challenge of giving birth to and raising 100 babies! (credits to HarmonySims for the idea) She modified her traits especially for this challenge which are; flirty, excitable, family oriented, charismatic and good sense of humor. Except there's a catch, she's a VAMPIRE!..
Did I just say vampire?! Yes I did. ;) Alvina's name meaning is "Magical Being" with Selene as her last name the meaning turns to "Magical being of the moon" which is perfect because she was born a vampire under a full moon! This isn't the normal scenario for a vampire to birth children but Alvina has proved worthy of such an exception. How can a female vampire have children? I'll explain...
Alvina reached the top of the Political career track and as The Leader of the Free World, she gained access to TOP SECRET government files and maxed out her charisma skills. With information better than gold, she retired young earning a weekly pension! With this pension, government files and her persuasive speech skills she managed to hire a team of Science Researchers and Doctors to form a Secret Society where the unthinkable can become reality. So with INTENSIVE fertility treatment Alvina's dreams of the 100 baby challenge are possible.
