A man in Oregon is currently pregnant with a daughter due in July of 2008. He is happily married and the couple wanted to have children, but his wife, Nancy had undergone a hysterectomy years ago and was unable to have children.

Thomas Beatie, was born a woman and became a legal man through a sex change operation. He had chest reconstruction and testosterone therapy but did not have his uterus removed so the couple was able to conceive via artificial insemination.

Unfortunately the couple has met with some hostility from the medical community and some members of the public. It is a shame. We feel that all new life should be celebrated and we offer our congratulations and wish them luck!

This is the first book for comedian and actor Kevin Nealon (who played a night patrol watchman in You Don’t Mess With The Zohan). It’s packed with comedic content so readers will surely demand future books.

Nealon is a first-time father with his second wife, actress Susan Yeagley. He explores and details the male point of view on pregnancy, describing the lead up to the birth of their son in 2007. Nealon is a 53-year-old first time father who described wife Susan, 34, as “still pregnantable”.

“Beneath the jokes, Nealon swims in poignant undercurrents, discussing his relationship with Susan, recalling his childhood and reflecting on life in general. Digressions lead to such jests as: Why do some people get their stomach stapled? What if you wanted to just lose a little weight? Could you paperclip your stomach? Fellow humorists Benchley and Thurber would probably nod in admiration at Nealon’s ability to insert a bon mot or clever phrase into almost every paragraph of this very funny navigation from pregnancy to parenthood.”-Amazon
