Baby Born From 31-Year-Old Embryo in Ohio Breaks World Record

  • On July 26, 2025, Lindsey and Tim Pierce from Ohio welcomed baby Thaddeus Daniel Pierce, born from a 31-year-old frozen embryo.
  • The embryo, created through IVF in 1994 by Linda Archerd and her former spouse, had been preserved since then until it was later adopted by the Pierce family.
  • Following a prolonged struggle with infertility, Lindsey and Tim Pierce chose to adopt an embryo through Nightlight Christian Adoptions' Snowflakes program, leading to the transfer of two embryos into Lindsey's uterus in November 2024.
  • John Gordon, founder of Rejoice Fertility Clinic, oversaw the process, emphasizing that millions of embryos remain stored worldwide; Lindsey stated, "We just wanted to have a baby," not to break records.
  • Thaddeus appears to set a new record as the longest-frozen embryo successfully brought to life, highlighting challenges and hopes in embryo adoption and long-term embryo storage.
