Transplant baby makes UK history

A BABY girl has made history as the first child in the UK to be born from a womb transplant.

- 

Grace Davidson, 36, from north London, received the organ also called the uterus from her older sister, Amy, in the UK's first womb transplant in 2023.

Now, following the success of the procedure, she has given birth to baby Amy Isabel, named after her aunt and a surgeon who helped perfect the technique. The news gives hope to thousands of women born without a womb or whose womb fails to function.

Mrs Davidson is an NHS dietitian, and her husband Angus, 37, works in finance. Baby Amy was born on February 27 at Queen Charlotte's and Chelsea Hospital, in London.
