| Mbita MP Millie Odhiambo has sponsored the Invitro Fertilisation Bill. |
Nairobi, Kenya: The National Assembly will soon debate a Bill designed to protect test tube babies and their mothers.
The term “test tube baby” refers to a human baby created by uniting the mother‘s egg and the father‘s sperm in a laboratory dish or test tube, a process known as in vitro fertilisation, and then putting the egg inside a woman — either the biological mother or a surrogate (substitute mother) — to grow.
