Hello, all.
Two days after Christmas, I found out I was pregnant. sweatdrop
Normally, to someone with a biologically female body, that would be a blessing. (assuming they were happy to have a kid). rofl
In my case, I felt pure terror and panic. How the HELL am I supposed to maintain my male identity while being preggo? gonk crying redface
Since announcing my pregnancy to a few friends and other trans* folks, I've received a lot of support. Apparently, the term for a pregnant transmale is a "Seahorse". lol whee
I guess I am here to let you all know that no matter what happens to you, nothing can strip you of your identity. I'm still male, and nothing can change that. Not even popping out a kid. If a seahorse can do it, so can I. xp I never have wanted a child, but I know that this was supposed to happen. I don't feel like I am alone now, and I feel more motivated to get my life together for the kid. The other father of the child and I are no longer in a relationship by my choice due to some of my bipolar issues, but he is still very much active in the kid's life.
So feel free to ask, leave comments, or whatever ya'll wanna do, just keep it classy and keep it respectful. I reserve the right to kindly ignore all who are rude and offensive. I don't think that will be a problem, though. smile
Thanks~
-Evander
BTW; morning sickness everyday REALLY sucks

Wowie!
I've actually always wondered about how someone would go about this predicament.
I suppose my first instinct is to say, "GO YOU!"
My second is to offer my own emotional support and the hand of the guild.
I dunno what questions to even begin asking but on behalf of the GGSA I'd like to think we're all behind you, 150%.

Go for it! heart
Most trans people don't get to have kids once they have transitioned.
its only 9 months out of like 80 years of life. heart

I have to agree with Der Fluch...as a boring bi male...I would not know what questions/advice to give you except to say...YOU GO BOY!! I'm very confident you'll be a good daddy and that the child is blessed to have such a unique (I think?) situation coming into this messed up world of socialism, bigotry, sexism and all the other effed up politics. I'm especially appreciative or your late partner willing to be in the child's life.

Der Fluch des Pharao Wowie!

My second is to offer my own emotional support and the hand of the guild.
I dunno what questions to even begin asking but on behalf of the GGSA I'd like to think we're all behind you, 150%. Thank you! biggrin I'm quite happy to have all the support I can get haha. I know I can't do this alone. Luckily I have a good circle of friends IRL as well, but it is a small circle, and I'm trying to expand it. smile

Aeterna-Imperium Hello, all. Two days after Christmas, I found out I was pregnant. sweatdrop Normally, to someone with a biologically female body, that would be a blessing.

I don't think that will be a problem, though. smile Thanks~ -Evander BTW; morning sickness everyday REALLY sucks This post...was exactly what I needed. I can't express how good it made me feel. I'm a FTM transgender as well, and have always wanted to be, well, pregnant, for reasons I don't really know. The idea has just always been extremely appealing to me, but deciding I was male made it seem..wrong. I live in an extremely homophobic and transphobic area, so I hear many hateful and even threatening comments. I feel like a bit of freak for wanting to be a pregnant male, but at this point I don't care, I'm just waiting for the one day I can have that (since I'm much too young right now). But your post made me really happy, because I personally don't see much about "seahorses", except for those few very popular news stories, that only got there out of people's sick fascination and chiding, furthering my shame for wanting to be that. To hear someone personally talk about it, and not being ashamed of it even if it were accidental, is immensely uplifting. I'm not alone heart . I have to assure myself of my being male everyday, despite being (almost) completely in the closet, and getting called female on a regular basis. But lately, more than ever, I'm fully assured of my male status. It just feels..right. I prefer feminine things, so it makes it harder, but I know who I am, and even so, your words made it even better. I'm sorry I'm rambling now sweatdrop but anyways, thank you, and good luck to both you and the baby <3.
