REM LLC won an Emmy for Co-directing, Miracle Baby, a documentary film offering an unprecedented look at the process of uterus transplant - from the science behind the procedure to the incredible emotional impact it can have on a family.
After learning she'd been born without a fully-formed uterus (a condition called Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, or MRKH), Jen Gobrecht was forced to come to terms with the fact that she'd never be able to carry children in her own womb. Then she learned about Penn Medicine's Uterus Transplant program, and embarked on a journey she never imagined was possible.
Follow Jen and her husband Drew as they navigate every twist and turn from transplant surgery to IVF to pregnancy and ultimately delivering a healthy baby boy.
