'Pregnant Man' Gives Birth to Girl
ABC News ^ | 07-03-08 | RUSSELL GOLDMAN and KATIE THOMSON

Posted on 07/03/2008 11:52:43 AM PDT by kik5150

Thomas Beatie, the transgender man who made headlines as the so-called "pregnant man," gave birth today to a healthy baby girl, ABC News has learned. Pregnant Man Transgender male Thomas Beatie has delivered a healthy baby girl. Beatie became pregnant through artificial insemination.

The birth - at a hospital in Bend, Oregon - was natural, according to a source, who added that earlier reports that Beatie had planned a caesarean section are false.

"She's really cute, really pretty,'' the source told ABC News Thursday afternoon.

Born a woman, Beatie, 34, who had his breasts surgically removed and legally changed his gender from female to male, leaped to prominence around the world in April when the wispy bearded man revealed he was pregnant.

Despite years of taking hormones and living outwardly as a man, Beatie maintained that he retained his female sex organs because he intended one day to get pregnant.

My prayers go out to this poor baby. I hope somebody does a follow-up on her life so we can know how she’s doing.

If it was born a female and it kept its female sex organs then it's not a 'he'.

Legally born a woman. Thats what God intended her to be. Why do they keep refering to her as “HE”.

Damn “FREAK” is what I say. Very very very mentally disturbed freak. The really sad part is that the genes of this freak have now multipled.

This 'man' thing is ridiculous. She has ovaries and a vagina and is therefore no more a man than Al Gore Paris Hilton is.

Should read "Mentally ill woman who cut off her boobs and her hair has a kid".

She's about as much a man as my wiener dog.

When someone who actually has XY-chomosomes and didn’t have surgery to place a womb into his abdomen gives birth, then it will be news. Otherwise ...

retained his her female sex organs

There, fixed it. Unless her chromosomes changed, which they didn't, she was just another mental patient in need of therapy.

Females have XX chromosomes.

Males have XY chromosomes.

This person has XX chromosomes.

This person is not a male.

This person is a female.

It is normal for females to give birth.

Yeesh.

People that would scream bloody murder is this ‘mom’ was caught smoking or having a beer, seem to think it was dandy for her to pump herself full of testosterone and God knows what else while pregnant.

I read somewhere once that it was physically possible for a male to gestate a fertilized egg implanted into the abdominal cavity wall, much as an ectopic pregnancy in a woman.........

I hope the “Couple” will ‘respect’ the baby girl’s decision to be female and not just start attaching things to her before kindergarten.

Those would be produced during the pregnancy, as with any normal pregnancy. All males start out as females to begin with before the sexual characteristics kick in, so the “instructions” for developing a fetus are still in the DNA of a male...............

Exactly - this is a woman who takes hormones and had a mastectomy. I don't understand why the media is making such a big deal over this story.

"Born a woman, Beatie, 34, who had his breasts surgically removed..."

Well, I guess that rules out breast feeding.

"He" is nothing more than a breastless woman.

Sorry "dude," if you want to be a man, you gotta have the right equipment.

Good luck in breastfeeding your baby.

Fixed. She doesn't have a Y chromosome. You can mutilate your body all you want, but it doesn't change your genetic identity, which is the truth. Shame on the media for confusing gullible idiots and children who don't know any better.

All she's had done is lopped off her mammaries and taken hairy-hormones.

Mightn’t the male hormones have damaged the development of that poor little baby girl?

I was wondering the very thing. How could ‘mom’s’ hormonal issues not impact the baby? They do in surgically unaltered women. And now the little girl can share the joy. I hope they are checking the baby.
