"Now, where are you calling from again?" he asks. It's easy to imagine why he might not be able to keep all the media calls straight. Not only is Moore 7½ months pregnant—something that could scramble any first-time parent's brain—but the 20-year-old Northern California college student has just been anointed by the press as the world's second pregnant man, causing an avalanche of attention from national and foreign media outlets. Earlier in the week a representative from a daytime talk show rang his doorbell and delivered a Mexican pizza, complete with a congratulatory note. "It is getting crazy around here!" he says.
