Man having a baby after sex change

I am sure this has probably been discussed before but was just watching a documentary on 20/20.

I still can't get my head around it and really feel for the child. She may be given unconditional love by the parents but what about going through school - it is not going to be easy for her....

imagine how confused she will be!!!!
i am sure that she will be loved and have great parents but will she have friends??? kids can be cruel sometimes

From what I remember about school , its hard for any kid, no matter what the family background is.
And quite frankly if they weren't teasing her about that, they'd find something else to tease about , yeah, kids can be cruel , and she'd probably find she would be teased even if she came from the most normal background .
I have no problem with it, so long as they love and provide for her , its not really any of my business , each to their own and all that .

didint they go back on oprha or sum other talk show and say they are pregnant again? im sure i watched that???

i watched that too and found it very interesting......i especially loved the birth. but then i just wanted to gork at the newborn....i'm good like that
did you see all that hair!!!

i don't blame them for getting some money for sharing their story. i would too! help fund her education later in life. everybody already knew about them and were stalking them for pics, so why not get paid for some

who's to say that by the time she's at school, people would've forgotten her name and who gave birth to her......kids will pick on kids for anything, no matter what and that will never change.

good on them...they are loving parents and that's all a kid could wish for

I found it quite sad how angry and abusive people got over it.

I think it was really interesting but their daughter doesn't look like she's going to have anything but a normal upbringing (despite the paparazzi). Mum's a mum and Dad's a dad. Dad cringes at poo-ey nappies and Mum breastfeeds......

Actually I'm a little jealous. They have a beautiful baby. Dad was the one who carried her for nine months and pregnancy is no easly slog for anyone. Mum's now the one who gets up for the feeds etc. So it's not just one doing the hard work, they really have shared the load. Seems like a fantastic arrangement.

And who knows? With the amazing advancements of modern medicine, by the time their daughter get's to school Men may actually be able to carry a baby.

I completely agree.

Two people fell in love, wanted a child... one was born physically a female but identifies as a male and the other could not carry a baby. So what?

I say good on em. They seemed genuine from what I saw (i only saw the last 20 minutes). And their baby is beautiful and has two loving parents. If only every child was so lucky.

A disturbing case to me is like the one in Australia last year with the father having a baby with his daughter... now THAT in my opinion is a million more times unnatural.

Just my 2 cents worth.

OMG, Hi cuz!
Lol.

The baby was so freaking cute :)

I'm good! Just started my first year as a Student Midwife!
My gosh Kaelen has gotten big!

Sorry everyone to hijack the thread for a family reunion. Lol!
