A couple from Ohio has welcomed a baby boy who was frozen as an embryo for more than 30 years, setting a new record for in vitro fertilization deliveries.

A baby boy born last week to an Ohio couple developed from an embryo that had been frozen for more than 30 years in what is believed to be the longest storage time before a birth.

On a summer morning in London, Ohio, Lindsey and Tim Pierce welcomed their newborn son, Thaddeus Daniel Pierce. Born on July 26, his arrival was a long-awaited joy for the couple. But what makes Thaddeus unique is how long he waited to be born.
