Psa 51:5
(5) Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Good verses regarding the genetic old sin nature in the body of man.

Still doesn’t address the creation of the soul.

Previous doctrines definitely asserted God places the soul in man at birth, which also nicely explains why stillbirth may be lamentable regarding the body, but the soul may have never been placed in the body even after separation from the mother.

Yes Psalm 51:7 shows you receive your soul at conception,
I do not know what other doctrines you are talking about.
Here’s another verse from the Gospel...

Psalm 51:7 “I was born guilty, a sinner, even as my mother conceived me.” This verse shows that conception is the birth of our spiritual existence.

Luke 1:15 (referring to St. John the Baptist) “He was filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb...” This shows that St. John was a fully vested human person, with a body and soul, even before he was born.
