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.
