Thomas Beatie, who is legally male but decided to keep his female sex organs during chest reconstruction surgery and testosterone therapy, attracted worldwide attention in April after revealing his pregnancy.

The 34-year-old gave birth to a baby girl at a hospital in Bend, Oregon, America's ABC News reported, without providing further details.

Beatie, who sports a beard, was dubbed the "pregnant man" after appearing on Oprah Winfrey's television talkshow to discuss his pregnancy.
