LONDON - Louise Brown, who was the world’s first “test-tube” baby, has given birth to her first child.

Cameron John Mullinder was born Dec. 21 in the western English city of Bristol, reports said.

“He’s tiny, just under 6 pounds, but he’s perfect,” the Mail on Sunday newspaper quoted her as saying. The baby was naturally conceived.

The 28-year-old married Wesley Mullinder, 37, three years ago

2. I was pregnant for my first child when Louise Brown was born
This makes me feel very old, too. I put an entry about the first test tube baby's historic birth in my sons baby book in the summer of '78. :cry:
