"I am God's gift and I believe my baby is also special,"said Harsha after delivering the baby boy, reported the Times of India.

"My baby is a blessing for me and there are no words to explain what I feel at this moment," added Harsha.

Louise Brown, the first test-tube baby, was born in Britain in 1978, and about five million babies have been born worldwide through IVF since.
