UK’s first baby born from womb transplant marks historic medical milestone

A baby girl has made UK medical history by becoming the first child born from a womb transplant in the country. Grace Davidson, 36, from north London, gave birth to her daughter Amy Isabel after receiving a womb from her sister, Amy Purdie, in the UK’s first womb transplant surgery in 2023. Amy Isabel was born via planned Caesarean section on February 27 at Queen Charlotte’s and Chelsea Hospital in London. The moment has been hailed as a major breakthrough for women with uterine infertility, especially those born without a womb or whose uterus does not function.
