Of Fertility

In an attempt to ease the moodiness of this blog and in the essence of time provided by a sleeping baby (instead of a crying one), i had prepared this post on the 17th for its appearance only on 19th..

despite the availability of information on the internet, it seems like most people still refrain from searching for information and learning to unlearn, learn and relearn but they have.. as it is, i'm not referencing your medical shitheads, wiki and what-nots for this post.. just a random flow of information that this tired mind can recall..

i do hope that readership can increase after the succession of 2 postings in 3 days.. hence the more interesting topic on fertility.. the recent upgrade from husband to dad-mode also somewhat meant i'm a little more qualified on the topic..

now now, basic science or biology that you had taken in secondary school would have educated you that a sperm has to fertilise an egg before a child can be conceived, what science didn't teach you then, was that an egg is only ready to be fertilised in a 24hour window period after it descends from the ovaries.. what's more interesting is that where the "ready" egg is available for only 24hours, the human sperm, under the right conditions, can thrive in the womb for up to 3 days while readying itself to fertilise the egg..

confused?

Bascially, it takes an awful lot of chance or an extremely high amount of testing and planning to successful fertilise an egg, the next chance for the successful combination would be to nest itself onto the wall and begin development into a foetus in the womb..

from a tiny little dot in the early days to the comma-like creature that developes into a cashew nut and finally a tiny human, fertility, pregancy and childbirth is a challenge in its own.. if you are serious about getting a child, find out more, ask your friends (can ask me too), ask your gynae, ask you wife's gynae, ask ask ask

good luck

*Hope this was an interesting post after a lack of time and creativity has kept this blog rather boring over the last weeks, i do hope to do more of such post and i hope you folks who bother to check in frequently don't get disappointed.. on a totally separate issue, i got my first cheque from google for the ads i read here.. so thanks if you are one of those who clicked those ads or used the google tab to search stuff.. you had certainly contributed to the milk powder/diaper fund.. stay around for more!
