5 Advantages of Embryo Adoption1. Embryo Adoption allows the mother to experience pregnancy and childbirth.

Many families who cannot conceive mourn the fact they have never experienced pregnancy and childbirth.  Other types of adoption cannot alleviate this grief. When the woman has received a successful frozen embryo transfer, the baby begins to grow in her womb and she gets to experience all of the joys and challenges of pregnancy, labor and delivery.

 

2. Embryo Adoption allows parents to begin bonding with their child immediately.

In other types of adoption, adoptive couples begin to bond with their children later than do parents of biological children.  Even families who adopt an infant do not begin the bonding process until the child is born.  While the bond that is formed is a strong as that between a parent and their biological child, being able to form that bond beginning in-utero can be a precious gift for adopting couples.
