A baby girl has become the first child in the UK to be born to a mother using a donated womb.

The baby's mother, Grace Davidson, 36, was born without a functioning uterus, and received the womb of her sister Amy in 2023, in what was then the UK's only successful womb transplant, reports the BBC.

Two years after that pioneering operation, Grace gave birth to a baby girl – weighing just over two kilos (four and a half pounds) – by Caesarean section at Queen Charlotte's hospital in west London on 27 February. She and her husband, Angus, 37, named their daughter Amy in honour of the sister who provided the womb.
