Transgender helped give birth to a transgender child from a transgender
A transgender man gave birth to a child in the UK. You will say that there is nothing surprising in this today, but there are two nuances. The first is that the child was born from biological material obtained from a transgender woman, and the second is that a transgender doctor took delivery.
Reuben Sharpe, who is now 39 years old, changed his gender 12 years ago. But six years ago, he really wanted to have a baby and he stopped taking testosterone drugs to restore his childbearing function.
The father of the child, 28—year-old Jay, generally considers himself a non-binary person, that is, he does not consider himself to be of any gender. He fully supported the decision of his beloved and the couple began to move towards the intended goal. First of all, they turned to the sperm bank, where they chose a donor. It turned out to be a transgender woman.In vitro fertilization (IVF) enabled Sharpe to get pregnant, although it took three attempts. The future parents were also instructed to monitor the pregnancy by a transgender doctor. Ruben and Jay justified their decision by saying that such a specialist understands the subtleties of transgender physiology better than others, and besides, he will not ask unnecessary questions.
Three months ago, Ruben Sharp gave birth to a baby by caesarean section, but the couple was in no hurry to tell the whole world about their happiness. Now that it has become known about the amazing birth, the attention of journalists is focused on the unusual family, who are interested in absolutely all the details of the life of a transgender couple and their baby.
It is known about the child that he was given the name Jaime and his gender is not disclosed. Parents believe that their child will choose gender for himself when he grows up, and they are not going to instill any stereotypes in him. As for Ruben and Jay's plans for the future, we can only say that they plan to play a wedding in 2020. In the same year, another transgender couple from the UK is waiting for replenishment — Jake and Hannah.
