Thomas Beatie to Give Birth 12,390 Views - Click for Larger Image
This is truly one of the most amazing feats of mankind.
A married man, in concern of his wife who could not conceive, requested to have her fetus installed within his very own gut. Could this amazing man, Thomas Beatie, be leading a new wave of Mr. Moms?
On July 3, the couple’s little baby girl is due.
So now ladies, next time you man ask you if he could have a baby, just lean over to him and say “Sure you can”.
As excited as we were, it should be noted that Thomas Beatie was actually born a woman, but then had a sex change.
“How does it feel to be a pregnant man?” he writes in the article.
“Incredible. Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am. In a technical sense I see myself as my own surrogate, though my gender identity as male is constant. To Nancy, I am her husband carrying our child. “I will be my daughter’s father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family.”
In the article, Mr Beatie says that to neighbours in “our quiet Oregon community”, he and his wife “are viewed just as we are - a happy couple deeply in love.”
Canada’s National Post said an editorial assistant with The Advocate confirmed it had verified the pregnancy with Mr Beatie’s gynaecologist. She added that the photograph of the pregnant man was Mr Beatie.
The Beaties, however, refused to give the Post further details, citing deals with American media outlets. “It’s a big deal and we want to be able to tell our story,” the Post reported Mrs Beatie as saying.
“We’d love everybody on board as long as they’re understanding and are going to tell our story and not their own.”
