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

Cameron John Mullinder was born December 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.

Her sister, Natalie, who also was conceived through in-vitro fertilization, in 1999 became the first test-tube baby to give birth.
