The first baby by transgender parents was delivered via C-section in
the province of Entre Ríos, Argentina.
The happy couple is 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.
The couple have both been able tolegally 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. This
became possible due to Argentina's Gender Identity Law passed in May
of 2012.
The baby was due on December 22 via scheduled C-section, but Alexis
started having contractions the weekend before the scheduled birth,
and the baby was born "earlier" weighing 9.37 pounds (4.25 kg) at
Hospital Fermín Salaberry in Victoriain.
The couple named their baby girl Génesis Evangelina.
It would be recalled that the couple has officially tied the knot in
November 2013. As you may notice from the photos, the 'man' has
already been heavily pregnant at the time of the wedding.
