A transgender man, Wyley Simpson, who gave birth to a baby boy has said he would not have another child again after receiving ‘insults and judgement’ from strangers.

The 28 who lives in Texas with fiancé, Stephen Gaeth, 28, began transitioning from male to female at the age of 21.

Despite taking testosterone therapy and being told by doctors that he could not fall pregnant as he had stopped having periods, the couple discovered he was pregnant in February 2018.

Although they initially did not feel ready to become parents, Wyley carried through with his pregnancy while battling rude comments from other people.

According to Daily Mail, in September 2018, Wyley gave birth to their 7lb 5oz son, Rowan, via emergency C-section, and admits all of the comments were worth it but he wouldn’t go through it again.

Speaking about the pregnancy, he said:

“It’s not every day that someone sees a pregnant man walking down the road, so we received a fair amount of abuse.

“I would be told that I’ll never be a man, “men don’t carry babies” and everyone called me “it”.

Wyley, who already had surgery to remove his female breasts meaning he could not breastfeed, intends to make the full transition in the future.

Wyley started testosterone in 2012 and got top (breast) surgery in 2013 – however, he has yet to have bottom surgery, an operation to create a penis.

Wyley found out he was pregnant at 11 weeks after struggling with morning sickness.’I was nervous. I was very emotional, I started crying. I didn’t know what to do,’ he recalled of his surprise pregnancy.

Speaking about the journey that followed, he said: ‘I was already worried as this was my first pregnancy.

“ Having gone through the transitioning process since I was 21 years old, having a physical baby bump was something so feminine that it messed with my head.

“But it was all worth it to have Rowan and to become a father – I wouldn’t have changed a thing.”
