She continued, “Two years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer and was told by several university hospitals that I would not be able to have children. But I never gave up. I met a hospital and professor who helped preserve my fertility, underwent cancer surgery safely, and was able to recover.”

She further noted, “After several attempts at natural conception, we decided to try IVF, and miraculously, we conceived on the very first attempt! I wanted to share this joyful news as soon as possible, but in the very early stages I had to be extra cautious, so I held it in… (And with morning sickness and nausea from happiness, it became harder to hide).”

ChoA elaborated, “Today, at 10 weeks and 2 days, I am introducing our precious identical twin babies, Heart and Cute! Since I have no cervix, there was a risk of preterm birth, so we intentionally transferred only one embryo. But it naturally split on its own and became identical twins. They say it’s a 1% chance…”

She recalled, “At first, I was worried, but now my only thought is to hold them safely and give birth to them healthy! I’ve shared the full story on my YouTube channel Choa Life in detail. I hope it can be of some help to anyone who has gone through a similar experience.”

“I’ll continue recording this journey through videos and show you a hopeful path until the very end, so please stay with me! Sending lots of strength to all couples struggling with infertility!!” she added.

ChoA concluded her caption by writing, “And to all the online aunties, uncles, family, and friends who have sent me heartfelt comfort, encouragement, and even shared baby dream stories with me — thank you so, so much!!! See you in March next year.”
