After giving birth to his first child with wife Nancy Beatie last July (a girl the couple named Susan Juliette), we learned in November that Thomas Beatie the so-called “pregnant man” was pregs once again with the couple’s second child. ABC News is reporting that Beatie gave birth to a baby boy early Tuesday morning (June 09) by way of natural child birth:

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. Then in his first trimester, Beatie told Walters he did not go back on the male hormone testosterone after Susan’s birth so he could have another baby. “I feel good,” he said. “I had my checkups with my hormone level, as far as the HCG. And everything is right on track.” In last year’s exclusive interview, Beatie spoke to Walters about Susan’s birth, which was also not via Caesarean section. He was in labor for 40 hours; Nancy Beatie cut the umbilical cord.

Well … I suppose congratulations are in order for the expanding Beatie family! Now Thomas and Nancy have a girl and a boy … the traditionally “perfect” American family! I suspect news of this second birth will cause a bit of a sensation all over again (like news of the couple’s first child did last Summer) but, once again, I’m sure things will be back to normal again for the family. Again I say, much love and congrats to the Beaties on the birth of their little boy!
