Thomas Beatie, also known as the “pregnant man” has given birth for a second time!   Thomas and wife Nancy are already parents to daughter Susan Juliette, born last June.  They are now proud parents to a son.

From ABC 20/20:

Thomas Beatie, the controversial “pregnant man,” gave birth to his second child, a healthy baby boy, early this morning, “20/20″ has learned.

Sources close to the couple say that it was a “natural childbirth” and that they have not yet decided on the boy’s name. Beatie’s wife, Nancy, will be breastfeeding their son, as she did with their daughter, Susan Juliette, who was born last June.

Photos of a bearded Beatie with a pregnant belly caused a sensation last year, leading to headlines about the world’s first “pregnant man.”

Born a woman named Tracy, Thomas Beatie, now 35, had sex-reassignment surgery and legally changed his gender from female to male in Hawaii.

Beatie, who kept his female reproductive organs, says that he decided to bear children, when his wife Nancy, 46, was not able to.

The couple described their unusual path to parenthood in an exclusive interview with Barbara Walters last year, during which they revealed that Thomas was expecting a second child.

Congrats to the family, and hope baby is doing well!
