Baby girl born from embryo frozen for 27 years

(HealthDay)—A baby girl born in Tennessee from a 27-year frozen embryo broke the record for the longest-frozen embryo to result in a live birth, which was held by her older sister, Emma.

Molly Gibson was 6 pounds, 13 ounces, when she was born in October to Tina Gibson and her husband, Ben, The New York Times reported.
