A pregnancy with a fertilized egg frozen for 11 years has succeeded and a girl was born last November. Even so, it is surprising that the fertilized eggs of her twin sister who was her older sister and this year's sister were fertilized at the same time.

It's almost like a baby born from a state like frozen sleep, but the example of the year-old sister being born so far by frozen storage of a fertilized egg is really unusual, so when planning a family plan, also treat fertility It seems that it can be said to be a valuable case.

From fertilized eggs by in vitro fertilization Life and twins Megan and Bethany are 11 years old. However, Ryleigh 's fertilized egg, born this year, was made at the same time as the twin sister, but it was frozen for more than 11 years. Experts say from the fertilized eggs fertilized at the same time, there are no other examples that were born with a clear year difference.

"When Ryleigh was born, I remembered Megan and Bethany born 11 years ago," said three mothers, Mr. Lisa (37). In 1994 the couple married and aspirated that they wanted to have a family soon, but, after that, she was diagnosed with endometriosis and polycystic ovary. In other words, Lisa's expectation of being pregnant naturally was negligible. I received drug therapy to increase the possibility of pregnancy, but I could not get a dramatic improvement.

Eleven years ago, Megan and Bethany who were newborns.


So in September 1998, the couple received treatment with the Midland infertility treatment clinic. The doctor gathered 24 eggs, 14 of which successfully fertilized Shepard's sperm. Two fertilized eggs were injected into the womb of Lisa and the remaining 12 fertilized eggs were placed in the refrigeration unit. Drug treatment was also not going well, so it was said that I was trying not to expect too much, but the result of the second exam was positive, and I found that the twins are pregnant.

Even after that the fetus grew steadily and Lisa gave birth to twin babies at Walsall Territory Hospital. "It was six weeks earlier than the scheduled date, but when they were born I was deeply moved, as the two grew up really well, we were allowed home for three days later."

In the year the twins became 9 years old, the couple started to think that they want another baby. I was very busy raising twins, so the idea that I want another child was driven to the crowd of the couple. I asked Megan and Bethany whether I wanted a younger sister, and made up his determination.

In December 2009, the couple attempted pregnancy with a fertility treatment clinic in the Chubu region, using fertilized eggs frozen stored ten years ago. Lisa's honest impression that "It felt a bit strange to pregnant with fertilized egg frozen and preserved eleven years ago." All fertilized eggs fertilized at the same time so the couple knew that the other baby was also a girl.

Since I did not know whether frozen fertilized eggs would grow properly, I decided to have one baby from one fertilized egg and decided not to try it with the remaining 11 fertilized eggs if this did not work That it was a challenge after it. "So, Ryleigh's birth is the first and the last chance is a result of fruition." Lisa said that with a smile.

Ryleigh was born in November in an extremely healthy condition. According to Lisa, "With my sister, Megan and Bethany are very exciting and they also know that my sister was fertilized with them as well as frozen for 11 years It seems that the sisters are very pretty about the little sister connected by mysterious rim. Ryleigh has eaten as often as if he regained time of 11 years, and he seems to grow well.
