From some article and posts came to know about Arjun's another son Rochanagarbha apart from the known four Abhimanyu, Bavrubahan, Iravan and Shrutakarma. In Vyasa Mahabharat its mentioned Subhadra had children. And this son Rochanagarbha appears on 12th day of war and was killed by Bhagadatta on the same day Bhagadatta got killed by Arjuna, but i didn't find much discussion or os on this unfamiliar son Rochanagarbha. Rochana is another name of Subhadra so its no doubt Rochanagarbha was son of Subhadra. hence i am trying to write something .

When Pandavas went for exile, Krishna took Subhadra and Abhimanyu to Dwarka ,Upapandavs too came with them but after few weeks Drupad took them to Panchal. After reaching to Dwarka Subhadra discovered has conceived for second time. She requested to Krishna to convey the message to Arjun but Krishna denied.
"I know Parth , i know how much self control it take for him to go away from his dearest wife and his lifeline Abhimanyu. If he comes to know that his beloved is going to give birth their second child,his patience will reach to its peak , he might not run to Dwarka remembering his duty , but all his attention will remain to his unborn child and that pain will be unbearable for him , he will not be able to concentrate in his penance to Lord Shiva and most importantly i will not be able to bear Parth's pain , so till the end of 13 years Parth won't know about existence of his fifth child. He will get to know when he will come to Dwarka."
Subhadra knew whatever her brother has decided is best for her husband so she agreed. after nine months she gave birth to a son. Arjun's youngest son. The son inherited dusky skin of his father unlike Abhimanyu and Subhadra's s soft moon like complexion. Same two big brown eyes as Arjun, in short he was a replica of Arjun. Everyone asked Krishna to give a suitable name to him
"Father calls Subhadra as Rochana so this son will be known as Rochana's son Rochanagarbha" stated Krishna

Time passed and Abhimanyu and Rochanagarbha grew older. But on Krishna's order Rochanagarbha's identity was kept secret to only few members of Dwarka's Vrishni dynasty , he was not even introduced to his brothers in Panchal in a fear anyhow existence of him can reach to Pandavs. He was raised by Satyabhama , who was missing her sakha Arjun a lot and Rochanagarbha being looked exactly as Arjun made her more attached to him. Subhadra was more busy to raise Shrutakarma as per her promise to Panchali, Panchali's other four sons were older but Arjun's son Shrutakarma was only 3 years old hence he was needed care. so Subhadra and Abhimanyu sometimes had to go to panchal. Abhimanyu too was more attached to Upapandavs specially Shrutakarma, he used to teach them whatever skill he was taught by his Mamashree Krishna. shrutakarma was his favorite brother. Rochanagarbha didn't get much attention of Subhadra and Abhimanyu. He was also youngest among all princes of Dwarka. So he also was somewhat neglected. Neither Krishna had time to give on him. He was regarded just a child all the time. Hence he always wanted to prove himself, to do something big to show he is more than a child. He secretly watched his elder brother Abhimanyu's practice and tried to follow those. Abhimanyu was almost 7 years older to him. Rochanagarbha used to fear him because more than brother Abhimanyu was a gardian to him. As other upapandavs Abhimanyu used to teach Rochanagarbha and he was a quick learner too but considering his young age Abhimanyu also restrained to give him difficult skills. But Rochanagarbha didn't dare to ask for those advanced skills. Hence he used to follow those skills by watching from a difference. Abhimanyu was famous among all Dwarka prince and sons of other famous warrior of yadav clans. Where Rochanagarbha had only friend,Asanga youngest son of Vrishni warrior, Krishna's companion and Arjuna's disciple Satyaki who was even younger to Rochanagarbha and also overshadowed by his 10 elder brothers.
