Embryo Adoption

For decades medical textbooks have presented the consensus view that biological human life begins at conception.[1] For example, textbook authors Moore and Persaud explain that the very first cell resulting from fertilization “mark[s] the beginning of each of us as a unique individual.”[2] In addition, William Larsen’s textbook on embryology explains that the moment of fertilization “initiate[s] the embryonic development of a new individual.”[3] O’Rahilly and Muller also agree in their textbook that, at the moment of fertilization, “a new genetically distinct human organism is formed.”[4].

Currently in the United States, there are over 600,000 frozen embryos, or “snowflake babies,” waiting for their chance to really live.[5] The Adoption Law Firm can help guide parents in the process of redeeming these “snowflake babies” from an indefinite frozen existence and give caring mothers a chance to experience the joy of pregnancy.
