Spanish man to give birth to twins

Ruben Noe Coronado, 25, from Spain, is set to become the first in the world to give birth to twins after becoming pregnant following the start of the sex change process, Telegraph reports.

He postponed the process of becoming a man so that he could keep his female reproductive organs and give birth.
He fell pregnant after undergoing fertility treatment when doctors told his girlfriend, the mother of two children from a previous relationship, she couldn't have any more children.

Mr Coronado, born a woman called Estefania or Stephanie and still considered female under Spanish law, is due to give birth at the end of September.

He is the first Spanish transsexual to fall pregnant and it is thought he will become the world's first transsexual father of twins if everything goes to plan.

He plans to give birth at a hospital in Barcelona after moving to the area from Malaga two months ago with his girlfriend because of family problems.

He will bring the twins up with his partner Esperanza Ruiz, 43. They plan to marry before they become parents.
Once he becomes a parent he will resume his sex-change surgery and become a father rather than mother.
