Thank you for bringing up embryo adoption! We have personally tried this twice, and are attempting to a third time later this year. We have and continue to take necessary medical precautions to make my wife’s womb optimal to receive the precious humans that are neglected to maximize their chance of survival. So far, we have been unsuccessful, but find bittersweet contentment knowing the children we adopted as embryos were ushered in to God’s presence directly from a loving mother’s womb instead of from a Petri dish. We wish more people knew about this alternative option. We’ve heard it also be called “snowflake adoption.” It would be wonderful for Lutherans to spearhead making embryo adoption more known.
