World's first test-tube baby is pregnant

The world's first test-tube baby Louise Brown is expecting a baby of her own.

Louise was born on July 25, 1978, after her parents John and Lesley had tried for nine years to have a child. Her birth brought hope to infertile couples.

And since then millions of babies have been born using IVF, including the couple's second child Natalie, 20.

Louise, 27, and her husband of two years, security officer, Wesley Mullinder, are expecting their own child, who was conceived naturally.

The administrative assistant for a Bristol shipping company is due to give birth in January. She said: 'This is a dream come true for both of us.'
