i am officially 6 months pregnant. i have been carrying Abdullah inside me for half a year.
it feels awesome. and i look forward to the next 3 more months, just the two of us. and i shall forever look back to the times when i was pregnant with Abdullah with fond memories. there were many times when i feel lonely when the husband is not around, and i take comfort that our baby is curling up inside me, keeping me company and i have no excuse at all to feel like rubbish.
anyhow, went to the gynae for an appt yesterday. the hospital was not busy and so i had a chance to have a long chat with my dr. asked me many questions and she answered all of them patiently. when i first came to see her at 7 weeks, i did a scan and in the report, i was told i had a 1.7cm cyst and also a 2.1cm 'corpus luteum'. and so, being a kepo that i am, i asked if the two things were still detected in me during the last recent scan.
the dr explained that the 2.1cm corpus luteum is gone. probably dissolved. the function of the corpus luteum was to 'hold' and nourish the fertilized egg in place. once the placenta is developed, the corpus luteum will dissolved by itself.
as for the other 1.7cm cyst, she nonchalantly told me, it was not a cyst. it was actually another unfertilized egg. if that egg was fertilized, i could be expecting twins.
i was quite shocked hearing that. its quite surreal. i am not sad that i did not get a twin but inside my head, it was filled with 'what if's'. can u imagine?
but anyhow, i was told that since my ovary can produce two eggs during one cycle, there would be a possibility of it happening again.
and so, the husband was quite excited hearing that. it seems like a nice thought but lets see how we coping with Abdullah first. maybe we might change our minds about the 'cuteness' and rosy-painted pictures of having twins!

woah!! yr parents hooking up and both comin from a set of twins very the dengansecarakebetulan eh!! i mean coincidental. i dont have history of twins on any of my parents side, neither my husband's. so its quite a surprise. maybe kalau ada rezeki in the future, i dont mind getting twins.
