Wyley was born in the wrong body at birth. He is a transgendered man who went through a transition in order to get to the body that he associated with. When he met Stephan he was transitioning and had been having a hormonal treatment for many years.
An unexpected gift
And it was during his transition that Wyley fell pregnant. Although he had already undergone through, what is known as, top surgery a couple of years back (the removal of breasts in transgendered men), he hadn’t removed his ovaries yet.
Wyley had been taking testosterone for many years and because his physical change was very advanced, he wasn’t too concerned when he suddenly stopped getting his period. He initially figured it was simple]y a product of his ever-transforming body.
Then one day, he woke up with nausea and couldn't stop vomiting... After going through a series of blood tests at the hospital, it was revealed to him that he was in fact pregnant.
A message of tolerance
Initially, the couple didn't know what to do, because having a child naturally was not part of their plans. But they decided to keep it. We could only imagine the amount of adversity they surely must have faced for having decided to go along with the pregnancy.
This story truly is inspiring and spreads a powerful message of tolerance to everyone.
