At the age of 37, a US woman has successfully carried and delivered 10 healthy babies after pledging years of her life to help heartbroken couples who desperately wanted a child.

Emily Westerfield has spent much of the past 13 years being pregnant, carrying 10 babies to full term, three of which were her own biological children, and the rest as a surrogate, called a “gestational carrier” – someone who is not genetically linked to the child – for families who needed help bringing their babies into the world.
