World’s ‘oldest baby’ born from embryo frozen in 1994

Parents of boy born in Ohio, US, used ‘adopted’ IVF embryo that had been stored away for more than 30 years

The world’s “oldest baby” has been born in the US from an embryo that was frozen in 1994, it has been reported.

Thaddeus Daniel Pierce was born on 26 July in Ohio to Lindsey and Tim Pierce, using an “adopted” embryo from Linda Archerd, 62, from more than 30 years ago.

In the early 1990s, Archerd and her then husband decided to try in vitro fertilisation (IVF) after struggling to become pregnant. In 1994 four embryos resulted: one was transferred to Archerd and resulted in the birth of a daughter, who is now 30 and mother to a 10-year-old. The other embryos were cryopreserved and stored.  .  .  .

Cool beans.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

I guess I don't know why you'd want a kid at that age when you got a grandkid to spoil and send home.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
