WTF of the Day: Transgender man and father-of-two adopted children happily announces he is pregnant with his gay husband, a year after suffering a miscarriage.

This is Portland. A woman who wants to be a man also wanted to have a baby the old fashioned way even while it took hormone treatments to not be a woman any more. And, it is a woman who calls itself a gay man because it has heterosexual sex with a man who calls himself a gay man because he has heterosexual sex with a woman who identifies as a man, even as she struggled to get pregnant as a woman, by  a man…

THIS KIND OF THING IS WHY THE SHIELDWALL NETWORK IS HOLDING OUR #TRAD RALLY JUNE 24TH IN HARRISON, ARKANSAS. If you think this is is crazy, come and stand with us.

A pair of gay dads are expecting a baby together after one of them, who is transgender, became pregnant.

Trystan Reese, 34, and Biff Chaplow, from Portland, have revealed that they will be welcoming a child this summer after experiencing a heart-breaking miscarriage at six weeks in 2016, when trans-dad Trystan became pregnant for the first time.

The married couple, who are already parents to two children they adopted in 2015, announced the news on WNYC podcast, the Longest Shortest Time, with Trystan baring all about his journey as a pregnant dad.

Daily battles: The expectant father admits that he hides his baby bump when he is out in public

After the miscarriage, Trystan initially wanted to wait for a year before they had another go at conceiving, but given the complications of restarting and then going off testosterone again led to the dads trying again right away.

It took longer the second time for the couple to conceive, and they even became worried that they had missed their ‘only chance.’ But then, six months into trying, Trystan woke up feeling sick. After Biff took the kids to school, Trystan took a pregnancy test and discovered the good news.

Luckily, this time things were different, though they felt spooked enough by the miscarriage to become obsessed with every little detail in the early days. Trystan began ‘obsessively’ weighing himself and took multiple other pregnancy tests in the weeks to come.

When it came to the six-week ultrasound appointment, the couple called ahead to the ob-gyn’s office to let them know in advance, and make a note in his chart, about how they would be treating a pregnant trans-dad.
