He's not. He quit and waited for hormone levels to return to normal before conceiving.

But I wonder if anyone really knows the long-lasting effects of that hormone treatments that he had to have used. I pray that the baby is born healthy. Heaven knows, this little one will already have some big strikes again him/her when they are born anyway. To be born with problems on top of that would just be horrid.

That's my biggest concern, whether or not his hormone levels were normal before he conceived, those eggs have been there since he was born and were sitting there through all those treatments. No one really knows the long term implications of that.

Well, in the picture that I saw he had facial hair, so I don't know. How long would the hormones stay in the system?

This was a very good question! Perhaps, it was an economical issue. I read that sex change operations were very costly and maybe the budget dictated how much could be done in order to complete her transition.

Can we just call it what it is? A pregnant WOMAN. I don't care what kind of surgery you have, surgery doesn't determine your gender.

She may look like a man and have some male parts, but she is still a woman.

This is true.

Only time will tell the short and long term affects of these hormones on the baby.

He/She had the sex organs left alone, intending to have a baby someday in the future. This was not unplanned; he/she was artificially inseminated and planned to carry this child as a pregnant "man". How weird is that?

What a crazy mixed up world.:tissue
