Thomas Beatie: First Pregnant Man Pregnant AGAIN!

Zach Golt
The rumors are true, there is a pregnant man among us, and he is pregnant again for the second time. He has been all over the news, and he is sweeping the nation. The man's name is Thomas Beatie, and he is now pregnant again. He use to be a woman until he decided to have surgery. He is a transgendered male that kept his reproductive organs.

His name use to be Tracy Lagondino, and now he is legally male. The couple have been visiting many shows and have been on the front of several magazines and online websites featuring their miracle. Thomas and his wife are excited for their second pregnancy, and according to Timesonline he had a hysterectomy years ago. The only reason he got to keep his reproductive organs was because he said, they were his rights.

The first time he got pregnant it was almost fatal. It was still successful but he lost his right fallopian tube. According to Timesonline even had a quote from him saying, "When my brother found out about my loss, he said, 'it's a good thing that happened. Who knows what kind of monster it would have been?" On Oprah the couple went through different doctors trying to find one that would take on their special circumstance.

They stated on Oprah that they were rejected by approximately ten doctors. The neighbors were also interviewed to see how they reacted to the pregnancy and a lot of them were jaded, but they were extremely shocked when they found out that Thomas's wife wasn't the one that was pregnant, but that Thomas himself was taking on the role. This was not their first pregnancy, the couples had tried many other times before and were unsuccessful, but none of this could have happened with the doctors because the past tries the babies got stuck in the fallopian tubes. The two stressed the doctor that made it all possible for them.

Oprah and many others say that it is great that they have a child. According to Thomas he was very happy to become pregnant. On Oprah when he was asked if his family still accepted him, he said that his father still calls him Tracy, and is very un-accepting of his new name. His father will not accept him as a man. The couple was happy about the pregnancy and everyone that knew was excited for them.
