First Pregnant Man Gives Birth To A Baby Girl In Argentina (photos)

On December 18, the first baby to be born to
transgender parents in Argentina was
delivered via C-section in the province of Entre
Ríos.
The proud parents are 26-year-old Alexis
Taborda and 28-year-old Karen Bruselario.
Alexis was born a woman, but lives as a man
and Karen was born a man, but lives as a
woman.
Because of Argentina's Gender Identity Law
passed in May of 2012, the couple have both
been able to legally change their genders
without gender reassignment surgery, which
meant that when they got pregnant via
natural means, it was the man, Alexis, who
carried the baby.
So what about the baby? Well, the baby was
due on December 22 via scheduled C-section,
but couldn't wait.
Alexis started having contractions the weekend
before the scheduled birth, and the baby was
born "early" weighing 9.37 pounds (that's a big
baby) at Hospital Fermín Salaberry in
Victoriain.
The couple named their baby girl Génesis
Evangelina.
