Man Gives Birth To Daughter After Wife Couldn't Fall Pregnant (photos)
A husband has revealed how he carried and gave birth to his own daughter - because his wife could not fall pregnant.
Pictured sporting a beard as he showed off his pregnant belly, Chris Rehs-Dupin and his wife Amy met and fell in love in their 20s and always knew they definitely wanted a family.
With Chris - who was born Christina - being a pre-op transgender male, however, they planned for Amy to be the biological mum.
But when five attempts of intrauterine insemination - fertility treatment that involves placing sperm inside a uterus to facilitate fertilisation – failed, Chris volunteered to carry their baby instead.
33 year old Amy said:
“We went through a lot of fertility treatments, until we finally reached a point where we needed to make a decision as to whether we were going to do more medical intervention or if we were going to switch bodies.
“We were fortunate enough to have two uteruses. So, after a lot of thought and emotion and difficulties we switched to Chris.”
