How's this for unconventional: about twenty odd years ago, Cai was born a girl; Scott born a boy.  Eventually, Cai became the man he is today, Scott became Emily, and the two moved in together as a couple. Then, Cai got pregnant.

The two told the Daily Mirror that they were not even trying to have a biological baby, since it seemed impossible for either to get pregnant.  Cai was taking male hormones and was thought to be sterile—that in addition to birth control injections– so they safely assumed they could have unprotected sex.  Cai did not notice he was pregnant until seven months in.
