The mother and father of the “world’s oldest baby” have revealed how they plan to tell their son about his unconventional birth.
Thaddeus Daniel Pierce was born a little under a month ago on July 26, to parents Tim and Lindsey Pierce (34 and 35 respectively) from Ohio. His birth made history as he was born from an embryo that had been frozen for over three decades, breaking the world-record.
To better put that into perspective, Tim and Lindsey were only toddlers themselves when their son was conceived.
In order to get a proper grip on the circumstances that led to this phenomenon, we need to go back to 1994, when a woman named Linda Archerd (now 62) underwent IVF treatment with her husband.
