A 36-year-old Swedish woman has given birth after a womb transplant donated by her 60 year-old friend.
The baby was born prematurely weighing 3.9lbs (1.8kg) and mother and baby are now doing fine. This is the first birth from a transplanted womb, and the mother had to take immuno-suppressant drugs for a year to stop the womb rejecting, before conceiving via IVF.
