This is the amazing story of the embryos that were created in 1994 while the father-to-be was still a toddler and then donated through a Christian “embryo” adoption agency. Unthinkable.
The MIT Technology Review shared It’s an exclusive that will be published on Thursday, 30th July, about a baby born the weekend before. The baby is the oldest ever born. Thaddeus Pierce, born on the 26th of July, was developed from an embryo which had been stored in a freezer for over 30 years.

Lindsey said, “We didn’t think we were going to break any records.” “We wanted a baby.
