Snowflake Baby
  Snowflake ChildrenA child born from adopted embryos may also be called a snowflake baby. Snowflake babies offer hope to childless couples who want to experience the entire child experience from pregnancy to adulthood. When a family has been successful in having a child through in vitro fertilization, remaining embryos are often cryo-preserved or "frozen". This results in the question of what to do with the remaining embryos. These frozen embryos can be the hope of a child for an infertile couple and may become "Snowflake Babies". Nightlight Christian Adoptions frozen embryo adoption program has been named SnowflakesTM because embryos are unique, fragile and frozen, just like a snowflake. The program began in 1997 to allow embryos to achieve their ultimate purpose - life, and 134+ children have been born as a result. There are over 400,000 frozen embryos in cryo-banks in the United States. These are pre-born children waiting for a chance at life. Embryoadoption.com, a subsidiary of Nightlight Christian Adoptions, specializes in the adoption of embryos, allowing couples to experience the pregnancy and childbirth of their adopted child. snowflakes.org is an online resource provided by Nightlight Christian Adoptions and their Snowflakes Embryo Adoption Program.
