Pregnant Man and Wife Welcome Baby Girl
People.com has confirmed that Thomas Beatie a.k.a. “the pregnant man” has given birth to a baby girl. The birth was not done by C-Section as some earlier reports suggested but the good old fashioned way.
After catching some news headlines during his pregnancy, Beatie appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show to publicly share his story of transitioning from a woman to a man, and then becoming pregnant.
Growing up in Hawaii as Tracy Lagondino, he modeled and even went as far as to become a finalist in a Miss Hawaii Teen Pageant. But in his twenties became increasingly displeased with his female gender and began transitioning into manhood.
Tracy became Thomas by taking testosterone and undergoing breast removal surgery but decided to keep his female reproductive organs.
He was legally living as a man with his wife Nancy when he became pregnant. Much to the shock of his neighbors who had no idea that he wasn’t 100% man.
The baby girl is Thomas Beatie’s first child, and both Thomas and the child are doing well. The trans gender man plans to write a tell all book regarding his experiences. The book will likely be a best seller due to the high level of public fascination with this story.
Love them or hate them, you can’t help but wonder what’s going on with Thomas Beatie and his wife Nancy, and the role they both have in raising their daughter.
