Thomas Beatie, known as The Pregnant Man, has given birth to a girl, media reported Friday.
The 34-year-old transgender man welcomed a daughter at an Oregon hospital on June 29.
The baby girl is Thomas's first child.
"The only thing different about me is that I can't breastfeed my baby. But a lot of mothers don't," the man was quoted as saying.
Beatie said the baby was not delivered via C-section, though published reports had said it would be.
He intends to publish a book about his experience this fall, the reports said.
