Man Gave Birth To A Baby Boy by Dsimple: 5:40pm On Aug 04, 2017 |
A man has given birth to a healthy baby boy.
Trystan Reese, a transgender man living in
Portland, Oregon, gave birth to son Leo
Murray Chaplow on July 14 after chronicling
his experiences of pregnancy online.
Mr Reese tweeted in celebration: "Attention,
If You Have Ever Said 'A Man Would Never
Have A Baby,' A Transgender Man Just HAD
ONE," linking to an article about the birth.
He also posted a picture of himself with the
open-mouthed baby to his Facebook.

Mr Reese and his partner Biff Chaplow
already have two adopted children, having
taken on Mr Chaplow's toddler niece and
nephew when his sister became suddenly
unable to care for them.
While their story of being "accidental gay
parents" drew the attention of international
media, they decided to expand their family
by having their first biological child together.
Mr Reese has sought to demystify
transgender pregnancy through blog posts in
which he explained how he reconciles being
a man with being pregnant.
“People get the idea that this was some
experiment that we embarked on,” Mr Reese
told the Washington Post, pointing out that
there have already been
successful transgender pregnancies.
“This is tested ground. This is something
that has been done in a very safe and
healthy way,” said the 34-year-old Mr Reese was born female but began taking hormone therapy and identifying as a man age 20. Doctors told him that although taking testosterone has given him facial hair, his ovaries and womb were still healthy and he could have a normal pregnancy. WE ARE HEADING HOME!!! Leo has received a clean bill of health (and so has Trystan) so we are happily heading back home to settle into our new life with our newest little addition. |
