Grace Davidson, 36, received a uterus from her older sister, Amy, in the UK’s first womb transplant in 2023.
Now, following the huge success of the procedure, she has given birth to baby Amy Isabel, named after her aunt and a surgeon who helped perfect the technique.

It marks the first time a baby has been born in the UK following a womb transplant – a milestone for medical science, and for the thousands of women who are born without a womb or lose it due to illness.
