Mazel tov to the happy mother/father

This story fascinates me. A transman and his wife wanted kids -- and she couldn't have them, so he decided to lend his (still in place) womb for this miraculous event. It is a reminder that anything in this life is possible, and that expanding human potential through science and technology can bring surprising blessings.

Pregnant man Thomas Beatie has given birth to a baby girl

A man has given birth to a baby girl at a hospital in the United States.

Thomas Beatie, who was born a woman but after surgery and hormone treatment lives as a man, had the child in Bend, Oregon.

Beatie, 34, kept female reproductive organs when he legally became a man 10 years ago.

The baby, conceived through artificial insemination using donor sperm and Beatie's own eggs, was born on June 29 and Beatie and the baby are "healthy and doing well," according to reports.
