Introducing Sophie Elizabeth Smith (Apr.Fools)

Post by Instant Sunrise »

So it's been 3 months and I'm finally past the "danger zone" according to my OB/GYN, so I've decided I can't wait any longer to tell everybody. I've got a little girl on the way, and her name is Sophie Elizabeth Smith. My due date is September 11th (not even joking wtf) and she's looking very healthy as of my last ultrasound.

So SDN, meet Sophie:

Congrats, nice choice in name too. My fiancée wants us to name our first daughter the same name, with a different last name of course.

My great-grandmother on my dad's side was named Sophie. I'm told she was a pretty chill lady.

Congratulations. :)

So yeah, April fools. Medical science for transgender women has come far, but not THAT far. Thank you for the well-wishes though. :]

Yes, very well played. Not the usual April Fool's joke.

Well then here's to the happy day when medical science has gone that distance.

Well played. And I was about to give all manner of reassurance that two of my in-laws have Sept. 11 birthdays and manage all the same, too.

Is that even something they are working on? I doubt any trans women alive today will ever give birth.

It would be tangential to either improved organ transplants or growing artificial organs. Inserting a new uterus into a person will probably be tried first with women (in fact, I seem to recall hearing the Saudis trying it but I can't find a cite) but once perfected they might well be used by transfolk and the intersex as well as those who have lost those bits to disease or trauma.
