WASHINGTON, Thursday (AFP) A 55-year-old American woman gave birth Tuesday in Richmond, Virginia, to three genetic baby grandchildren, for her adult daughter who was unable, hospital officials said Wednesday.

Tina Cade had volunteered to have the children for her daughter Camille Hammond, 29, who is unable to have children due to medical reasons. Father Jason Hammond was reported to be delighted with the new additions to the family. Doctors in May implanted three embryos, formed from Camille's eggs and Jason's sperm, into Tina. The babies, two boys and a girl, were born by Caesarian section.

"This is our Christmas blessing, our New Year's blessing," Camille said.

"Really, the most wonderful gift we've ever received in our entire lives and probably that we'll ever receive, and we are just so grateful to mother, as well as to God, for this, this huge, huge blessing," she added. The babies, who had been due in mid-February, have been placed in a neo-natal wing of the hospital.
