The 36-year-old mother received a uterus from a close family friend last year. Her baby boy was born prematurely but healthy last month, and mother and child are now at home and well. The identities of the woman and her male partner were not disclosed. http://www.cbc.ca/news/health/womb-transplant-results-in-birth-a-world-first-doctor-says-1.2787165?cmp=rss Figured this would happen one day, it happened sooner than I thought.
