Thomas Beatie, the so-called "pregnant man," who gave birth to a girl on June 29th, is pregnant again.
Beatie, 34, underwent a sex-change operation 10 years ago, but but kept his ... her? ... female reproductive organs. And once again we can start calling him the "pregnant man," as he is his first trimester of a new pregnancy.
Beatie told the news to celebrity interviewer Walters for an episode of the ABC news program "20/20" that will air on Friday, Nov. 14. On Thursday's episode of "The View," Walters previewed the interview.
Beatie and his wife Nancy live in Bend, Oregon. He said the baby is due on June 12.
Beatie told Walters:
Before anyone asks, Beatie's wife, Nancy, 46, had a prior hysterectomy and thus is unable to carry a baby to term herself. Their prior baby, and this one were conceived via artificial insemination using donor sperm and Beatie's own egg.
