    A woman born without a uterus hopes to become a parent thanks to her mum who offered to be her womb donor.<\/p>\n

    Dannielle Maydom has Mayer-Rokitansky-K\u00fcster-Hauser syndrome, a rare disorder which impacts the female reproductive system. The MRKH condition means the 28-year-old was born without a uterus, leaving her unable to have children of her own.<\/p>\n

    But this year her mum Erica Turner, 48, said she would donate her womb to her daughter. It would potentially see Dannielle's growing a baby inside the same womb her parent did.<\/p>\n

    Dannielle is currently single but hopes to become a mum one day.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Erica, from Hertfordshire, said: "I have five kids and don't want anymore. Being Dannielle's mum, hopefully I would be a good match for her. I'd do or give anything for my children \u2013 if it helps.<\/p>\n

    "I would find it amazing if Dannielle had her own child through my womb."<\/p>\n

    Meanwhile her cousin, Jeanette, 39, has also offered her helping hand to be Dannielle's surrogate.<\/p>\n

    Dannielle added: "Me and my cousin Jeanette are very close. But when she told me she would me a surrogate for me if I wanted, I was overcome with emotion. It's all so exciting."<\/p>\n

    The hairdresser first realised something might be wrong at 16 when she didn't get her period, so went to the doctor.<\/p>\n
